    This time I think I've got it right

    Well I've just bought another bike and before you say it.....No it's not another knackered Dominator Its a 1999 Kawasaki KLR650, its done 9500 miles from new (with service history and old MOTs to back it up. It sounds beaut with its remus endcan (also has the original) panels and tank are extremely clean, theres a little very light rust (more staining really on the frame but nothing to worry about) I'll rub this down and give it a touch up spray job for now, might even look at having it stove enameled next year. I paid £1000 and to be honest I pretty pleased with what I've got for my money, there's a lot of crap out there in this price range believe me I seem attracted to them!! but this really stood out from the rest.

    What do you think (these aren't my photos, I take soom better ones 2moro when I collect it





    What this means is I'm now ready for some LIGHT off road duty ....you listening Mudwizz Btbloke and Airwolf
    What it also means is the 95 Dommi is gonna be broken up and sold off I'm sad to say

    It's not a case of whether we can fix it or not - it's more a case of how fixed would you like it?

    you do realise it is the wrong colour? ALL Kawasaki trail bikes MUST be green. it is the only way.

    apart from that it looks good.
