Heres my latest steed after my DRZ was nicked :augie

2005 KLE 500 5,000 miles on the clock with FSH.

Ive had it about 3 weeks now and put a larger screen, headlight cover and Givi topbox on it for my laptop. The finish on the bike is crap, paint has rubbed of the frame and rear footpeg hangers, end can was rotting too so that got rubbed down and repainted but it runs really sweet, cruises at 80 for my commute, its light, turns well and i get 55MPG even thrashing it.

They can throw as much salt down as they like and me or the little KLE wont care cus his big brother GSA will be tucked up in the garage ready for the weekend :D

Waxoyl is your friend!

BAshplate off and give it a coat

and all those hard to get at to wash places

it'll not dissolve as quick that way
 
Those bilkes are bullet proof but for me they aren't the bike they were since their colours became so mainstream.

I had one of these:

The green pinstriping really did shout out against the purple and the pink seat was luscious. My mate's Gilera Nordwest couldn't compete for garishness despite it being black with a pink seat and white wheels :D

At least you know when the salt is going to be chucked down :thumb
