The Tank is standard 6.1 gallons and gives a range of about 300 miles. The Kawasaki KLR 650 is a tough and durable motorcycle and the same design has been in production for 20 years. Because it is so tough and easy to maintain it was adopted by the Military. Reason enough to buy one.

I have made some upgrades to mine, front suspension is upgraded and I made a few additional parts. Total cost about $1500.

I was going for a Military low viz type appearance. It still has the "Mermite" Cans to go on the sides as panniers.

The Military also have a Diesel version that gives 110 miles to the gallon and has a 650 mile range.

By The way Rimmer,

I have been meaning to share this with you for some time.....THE RIMMER SONG !!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-CG6gCrPYM

If you're in trouble, he will save the day
He's brave and he's fearless, come what may
Without him, the mission would go astray
He's Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer

Without him, life would be much grimmer
He's handsome, trim, and no one's slimmer
He will never need a Zimmer
He's Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer

More reliable than a garden Strimmer
He's never been mistaken for Yul Brynner
He's not bald and his head doesn't glimmer

Master of the wit and the repartee
His command of space directives is uncanny
How come he's such a genius? Don't ask me
Ask Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer

He's also a fantastic swimmer
And if you play your cards right, then he just might come round for dinner

He's Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer
No rhymes left now apart from quimmer
He'd better fade us out before we get to shimmer
Fade out you stupid plimmer
