What a bike this is.......

Had a plan, I decided to be a "Match Maker"...I introduced and
left Two of my bikes alone in the garage one night, one thing
led to another and they had a Healthy 300lb Son.....The Parents
are: ( 04' KLR 650 + 03' 2 stroke KX500)....The new Katoom is
almost as comfortable as the KLR, and by George, almost as
powerful as the fire breathing KX500.......The "Best of Both
Worlds"
.
Now I'm in the process of dusting off and selling the
Parents.....Hadn't rode either one, in quite awhile......

Hey Drblackbird,
Welcome to the forum. The KX500 is a smokin' powerhouse! I'm
glad to hear the 690 compared favorably. I wonder if a freer
flowing pipe, intake, and map would close that performance gap?
Awesome that you're local to me. Let's track down the remaining
Houston area 690 owners and go riding!

Hey DrBlackbird, I just got my 690 and I'm Katy a lot and
looking forward to meeting a few of you guys out that way. I saw
you had posted on the Two Wheeled Texan forum in a ride post my
friend organized (Silsvee) I think that is his tag over there.
Just saying hello.
