The Merced Co. S.O (Calif.) is purchasing new KLR's for patrol duty. Any info regarding succesful equipment parts, installs and experiences would be greatly appreciated. Dep. Steve Cavallero

I have owned 2 KLRs. If adding any electrical drain to the bike an upgraded and higher output stator would be advised. Also depending on the patrolling to be done a 16 tooth counter sprocket is better for the highway it drops the rpms about 700 rpms. Kawasaki has a great setup as in side bags and a top case. Good luck and enjoy.

also might want to look into a big bore kit for the engine and some head work... and the doohickey.

good call....

but for a PD, a post would probably work out better... especially if they have a KLR mechanic on duty...

JFC, you know the psychological profiling that would need to take place to be a KLR Mechanic working within Law Enforcement?

Kevin couldn't... He about kicked mine over when he found out they use different sized bolts for all of the fairing pieces up front.
