Engine runs like any other day. No exes I've oil usage or stuff like that either.

What doi you guys think? Let me have it

I will throw in my brand new pants, helmet, and gloves too valued at about R6000. No need for it after she has gone. Or I can sell it separately.

Papers, licence everything up to date. I only had the bike for a few months now, served its purpose and can now go to the next guy :-)

Black. 62000km on the clock, no issues, not an oil sucker. R28 000 plus my helmet and pants (brand new) Bike is in great running condition and has been well maintained. I will service it before it goes. Crashbars, bash plate, pannier racks, progressive springs, "doohickey" done I will throw in...

I have also noticed the springs were put in the wrong way. The more tightly coiled part was at the bottom, and I read they ist be at the top...

OK, so I removed the spring and its progressive. BUT The spring is very short, just over 18", whereas from what I read about progressives they are in the region of just over 22" The standard spring is about 14" ANy spring specialist here that can tell me how long they should be? Could they...

Thanks for the replies, now what about without opening it? Surely it must be higher than standard?

Thanks, if you open it, how would you know?

Hi there, I recently bought a 2011 KLR. Is it possible to tell whether a KLR has progressive front springs or not, without opening it or something like that? For example, can you measure if it is higher in the front or something simple like that?

Hi, I live outside Riebeek Wes in the Western Cape ("near" Malmbesbury). Where should I take my KLR for a service? Im new in the western cape.. Thanks
