A short lived bike but I have seen some is the 'KLX650'

it is what Kawasaki made to compete against the XR650R.

I have seen a few of these too and they are very good bikes. Honda NX650

Ahh I have seen a few of each here in CO in Mint shape, the one guy that does the RMAR event I go to rides a NX650...very nice bike, bullet proof.

Also XR400's and XR250's are common out here thus you can find them in various shapes...but with the bikes being so damn good and parts being made for them you can fix one up and have a GREAT bike.

Well, next Kawaski KLX650 for sale let me know or 2003 KLX400.
I have friends in Colorado Springs and I'd make the trip to visit and take one home!

KLX650 $2,200 Looks good in pictures
1994 KLX650 Dual Sport

2005 XR650L $2,800 1,400 Original miles...LOL
2005 Honda XR650L Motorcycle

If someone went the KLX650 route I question it, parts would be harder to get, it was sold for like a year only in the US. It be much better to get the XR650R which has parts out of the wazzu available for it.
