2002 California Klr 650 For Sale In Buenos Aires

I just ended my motorcycle adventure from San Francisco, CA to Buenos Aires a few months ago and now it's time to do something with the bike I left there. I have title in hand so if you wanted too we could get you a title to the bike here. The bike ran beautifully all the way down without a hitch, I didn't even get a flat! Only issue with it now is the starter relay which was working intermittently. You could get one (or two) of those here for cheap or you could just jump the bike as shown here:

Starter Circuit Relay Bypass - KLR650.NET - Your Kawasaki KLR650 Resource! - The Original KLR650 Forum!

Details about the bike:
  • 36,000 miles, OIL was changed every 3,000 miles.
  • Car Charger installed on bike to recharge phone, ipod, or anything else you desire.
  • heated grips, note: one of the grips is torn so you might want a replacement but i just wrapped some gorilla tape around it and that worked for me.
  • panniers from military night vision google cases. these are small but did the trick for me.
  • panniers mounted on Happy Trails rack. So you can bring your own cases and slap them on there if you want.
  • Generic 'givi' like tail case I bought in Panama City for $70US. Enough room for all my clothes. It comes off easily with key lock. I would arrive at destination and bring this w me into hotel.
  • Highway Pegs from Happy Trails w only one peg That's OK tho because I was able to rest foot on 4" PVC tube.
  • PVC Parts Tube/Highway Peg?
  • Front and rear tube
  • Jumper cables that are already pre wired so you don't need to take the seat off.
  • Pre wired for tender.
  • Extra brake and clutch levers
  • Extra brake and clutch cables in housing
  • can of chain lube
  • can of emergency tire sealant
  • Copper pipe for holding bike up to oil chain. This was used very often and is a MUST on any long journey.
  • Straps for securing bike
  • Bungees
  • Bike Cover
  • Extra Pipe Straps for PVC Storage Container, just in case.
  • Extra rear mirror.
  • Digital Voltmeter
  • Bag of extra nuts and bolts
With all these miles and all these goodies and the fact that there is a Sweet bike waiting for you there I am asking 3,000 bucks for this awesome package. It will need an oil change and some new tires when you pick it up. It's also currently not on a battery tender but I can get it charged as soon as someone expresses some interest.

THIS BIKE NEVER HAD A MECHANICAL PROBLEM EXCEPT FOR THE STARTER RELAY. TO THIS DAY WHEN I AM ASKED ABOUT TROUBLES ON THE ROAD I HAVE THE TENDENCY TO LOOK FOR A PIECE OF WOOD TO KNOCK ON, WHICH I DID WHEN THE SAME QUESTION WAS POSED TO ME ON THE ROAD. I MISS MY BABY BUT SHE NEEDS A NEW HOME.

WAIT!!!

I THIS BIKE DOES HAVE SOME SENTIMENTAL VALUE TO ME SO I MAY BE ABLE TO KNOCK SOMETHING OFF THE PRICE IF IT WERE RETURNED HIGHLY UNLIKELY, I KNOW, BUT I'M JUST PUTTING IT OUT THERE.

Please feel free to ask me any questions about the bike or my trip. It took me 3 1/2 months which I think is too quick. But that's another story, I still enjoyed myself quite a bite and it was a TRIP OF A LIFETIME!

HAPPY TRAVELS!!!
