One for sale near me - I know they're similar to the vstrom but are they identical (apart from hideous orange colour)?
Kawasaki KLV - any good?

It will have a Suzuki badged VIN plate despite the Kawasaki branding.

hideous... hideous 
its damn beautiful man.
I sooooo sooo miss mine. Why the hell did i sell it. Absolutely awesome... some of the most impressive wheelies ive ever done on that beastie.
check it for clutch chudder if you go for it (all the 1000's suffered with it)..
otherwise they are super reliable, fast, comfy.. and rare compared to the normal dl1000.
The front plastics are ever so slightly different on the klv to the dl.
Put a jack up kit on it, some cans and some sticky tyres and go and p*** all over the sportsbike riders
ps, above 130 with panniers on they get a bit scittery.

Easy mistake, I did similar this week as well. It is all to do with the dates, best to check that before any reply post.
