I picked up my KLR 7 months ago and I´ve already logged 6K miles on it. Would be more, but winter came early this year. I use it to commute into South Boston every day that I can: 45 miles each way, and in the heavy Boston traffic a water cooled engine is a must! Bike is stable up to about 90 mph. I´ve only had mine up to 95, but don´t tell my wife. Hardly anyone in New England rides a dualsposrt so mine gets a lot of attention. This machine is a two-wheeled SUV.
