Restricted KLR 650.

Not sure if this has been mentioned before, please forgive me if it has. I recently discovered that my Tengais lack of power was not due to an electrical or fuel problem, but because it was restricted. Various countries specify low powered engines, one being Germany where my bike came from originally. So if anyone feels their KLR is lacking power, it only takes a few minutes to check if it's restricted. Start by removing slide from carb. (Simply loosen clamps and throttle cables and twist top of carb to the right.). The restricted slide has two holes drilled just below the diaphragm. Blank the holes to restore power.
