Nic,
I have a KLR650 C5 (2000 reg), and I've spotted a few KLR650 parts over the past few days on www.ebay.co.uk. One seller with parts is "madbike69". He/she may be able to help you, although I suspect that because it's a front-end problem, you'll see less parts available. If you're really stuck, I could temporarily cannibalise some bike parts for you, as long as you put me back together as good as before in the next few weeks. Note, I'm assuming you have the KLR650C (European model) rather than the KLR650A (US model), because the front forks are different (38mm for the A, 41 mm for the C). If I can otherwise help you from here, drop me a mail. I hope you get sorted out. Colm (aka phoenix)

Getting it together
Hey Phoenix,
Thanks for your help. I certainly wouldnt have thought to look on www.ebay.de Funnily enough my bike started its life in Denmark before heading to Tanzania and then Cape Town Where I bought it. Anyway am just trying to peice together what parts I can get to Genoa in time to keep us rolling. We are currently in Tunis so the bike has made it the length of Africa atleast. Thanks again for your help, greatly appreciated. Nic

Made it
Hey
Made it to London, wheel and fork both held up all the way. Slightly concerning but it seemed to be fine. Have purchased a wheel and forks off ebay.co.uk. So hope to get things back in better order. Cheap too, £26 for the rim, brake disk and tyre, £12 for the forks! Stoked. Again, thanks for your help. Nic
