So turns out next upgrade for the bike is going to be some not road tires, whoda thunk riding on silt and mud with 80/20s was a terrible idea. All in all just some plastic pieces broke which I can model and 3d print to fix. At least now I can say I have adventured.

Yknow it’d make more sense to not take a 460 pound bike through sketchy shit, but where’s the fun in that? The bikes fine, I just need to design and 3d print a replacement peg for the hard case which broke off lol

Lol, as a KLR owner I feel your pain.

We do it not because it is easy, but because we thought it would be easy. KLRs are such wonderful bikes though
