| The KLR engine is very smooth... for a single. If you are used to bikes like the KX-500 and old Triumph twins, it is like a Cadillac. If you are used to BMW twins, it is a little rough but not too bad. Some riders put a bigger front spocket on to slow the engine speed, there is a lot of torque in the motor to handle this sort of thing.
Try riding a BSA 500 single and you will never complain about the KLR!

| It can buzz enough to put your first two fingers to sleep in about a half hour. I usually will keep it at 65-70 which without a fairing beats you up enough on a longer ride. 65mph equates to about 4800rpm.
