Did my first decent ride on it today, Took it up to jersey to get it registered and inspected and return my comcast cable box. It was about 400 miles total and it kicked my ass.

1. 80 is too fast for a klr, 70 is a good speed
2. long highway trip I need a backrest or something to lean against
3. riding next to or passing trucks causes the bars to wander left and right
4. the brakes suck, really suck
5. 35hp is pretty darn slow compared to my cbr
6. the stock grips really suck, really, I wanted to cut my hands off at the end of the ride, I already bought some decent gel grips
7. The bike didnt do bad, but it could use some help to be more comfortable

So, to sum up, this is why people go the route of the Blue Koolaid?
