I can't express enough how grateful I am for you Tyler. Like you, I became interested in adventure touring through The Long Way movies. At that time I figured you had to have a ton of money to get into it. That is until I saw your channel. I was inspired and just recently bought an 89 KLR and took it to Moab and down to the Grand Canyon through Monument Vally. Had an amazing time and didn't spend a minute in a hotel. I just found places to hang my hammock. Again, Thank You so much for all you have done to get me on the trails.

@RogerWimberlyTacticalPhoto 8 лет назад

love it! especially for all the KLR-PEOPLE. 1 thing that would help you is a work bench if you don't have room use a truck tail gate in your drive way. it's a good way to stay organized in and not tripping on things. keep up the good work on your build. you Rock!

@eveRide 8 лет назад

On my last build I had a folding table set up and it helped a lot! I guess I was just too lazy to bring it out this time... or just too excited to get started! haha :D

@marks4303 8 лет назад

Looking forward to the end product. KLR's Rock !!!

@Lionheart638 8 лет назад

It's looking really awesome already eveRide, and that Lexx exhaust looks dang good on there. Can't wait to see it once it's completed.

@AdamSVT 8 лет назад

Lookin good! I really like the color but my favorite is the new rear look.. Transforms the back in a great way.

@GGBP14 8 лет назад

Crazy how many people work on their bike in sandals. Got some cute little helpers there.

@mikiessj4 8 лет назад

You've inspired me - I have a 92 KLR650 w/ the 685 kit. I'm going to get started on it next weekend. I love what you've done with yours and I'll be doing similar

@rickcolby6666 8 лет назад

Can't wait to see the end result. Especially with the rear fender. Getting excited.

@tomsilva2071 8 лет назад

got to love the Tusk panniers,lock to the bike and the lids lock. one thing you have to remember how wide they are, I've hit a few bushes pretty hard. I also get some weird looks, I guess people have never seen them on a DR650

@kdailey310 8 лет назад

My old KLR is in similar shape, even down to the broken speedo needle. I miss riding it and I will follow along and copy some of your ideas for my bike. Good series. Keep them coming.

@PistonSlap 8 лет назад

When I take big projects apart. I like to use the small zip loc bags with the strip on it to write on. I will note what it went to and place it in a bag. then later when resembling all the fasteners get put back!. great build project Tyler. I'm excited to see how it looks when your done.

@bluegram1389 8 лет назад

Looks like it will be cool when done, glad to see you doing the work.

@jeffreybey4361 8 лет назад

I just got an old beat to shit klr250, this videos gonna help me out a lot with the cleaning/refurb. thanks I'm staying tuned!

@nathanfant 8 лет назад

Hey everRide! Looking forward to seeing how this project progresses, as I also ride a KLR. Just wanted to mention my experience with the Lexx exhaust. I found the packing to blow out pretty frequently. I went to the Leo Vince X3 muffler instead since it never needs repacking! Best of luck on your mods!

@jered2177 6 лет назад

My drz rear fender came in from revzilla today,it is going on my Klr 650.thanks for the idea

@FRAGAFE 8 лет назад

It's nice to see videos of someone other than me working on a KLR. Keep it up man

@DRZcoffeegirlRide 8 лет назад

no jumping excited emote to put on here! it's going to look beast!!!! can't wait

@adventureperspective3748 8 лет назад

Clear coat the plastics to avoid cracks, all in all I am excited to see how the color turns out on the bike

@rustyevolution6298 8 лет назад

Keep your bolts organized with some muffin tins. As you take them off you can drop them in and add a post it note identifier.

@MrKneeDropper 8 лет назад

I love your vision for the klr!

@rhllnm 6 лет назад

Looks nice, thanks for the video. Tusk/RMATV rocks.

@erikz2754 8 лет назад

goodday about the hair spray I can't say that I have seen that type of spray can in the stores good luck with the mods looking forward to the end product

@joshuakyle1646 8 лет назад

Clymers manual is always nice to have. it has details on every bolt,nut,wire everything. you could completely rebuild the motor with nothing but the clymer manual and very little knowledge -1990 XT350

@outdoorsnomad 8 лет назад

Cool build so far. Coming right along! Gotta do something with mine eventually. It was red, but faded to kind of a pink now! Lol

@sloanaconda 8 лет назад

hey man I just wanted to say that I have been a huge fan of yours for a while now and it's because of you that I bought a 2005 KLR650 to ride and get off the beaten path. I have multiple sclerosis and have good days and bad days but I know that every time I see you posted a new video I know that it's going to be a good day. keep on being awesome I don't think you know how great your channels are.

@wildryno6909 8 лет назад

the tractor is looking good . I am doing an engine upgrade this summer on my big red pig (high compression piston and hot cam) the only two things I have not done to my bike . I will have to do a video on doing the upgrades

@91NotchBack 8 лет назад

Gonna be sick! I love Tusk parts, cheap yet good quality!

@eveRide 8 лет назад

@BandanazX 8 лет назад

Nice. The build is really coming together.

@eveRide 8 лет назад

Thanks! I'm really looking forward to riding it!

@ThisLifeRiding 8 лет назад

Nice man. Looks like its coming along nicely.

@desertghost3056 8 лет назад

Hey tyler, Looks like a cool project. I was at a klr meet up yesterday in Bountiful and had the chance to see some great machines and meet some new people. Im really interested to see how your project turns out. Im storing up ideas and info in da noggin so when i finally get a klr I'll hopefully have a running start. Thanks for the video as always great job.

@ThrottleFritz 8 лет назад

What a day! Good stuff man!

@rubberneckrides5940 8 лет назад

I've never seen that brand in Australia lol

@BobLenderman 8 лет назад

They're a bit pricey, but you should check out the Mitas e-07 dakar tires. The dakar version of the e-07 specifically was designed to have a reinforced sidewall to prevent punctures, pinches, etc. I put them on my gen1 KLR and absolutely love them. The only issue i had was on some loose shale rock, but I think that's more to do with my abilities rather than the tire.

@oldschooldirtbiker 8 лет назад

Man Tyler, your son looks just like you!! Nice build thread!!

@markgunnison 8 лет назад

Looking really cool. Looking forward to the next video

@eveRide 8 лет назад

Thanks Mark!

@bmxtimmy 8 лет назад

Not sure if anyone has said this yet or if you already know, but regular grips are pretty easy to put on and take off with a compressor and an air blower chuck. I know those were heated and probably would be a lot more difficult to do so may be this info is not as useful. Any way the bike is looking awesome and I can't wait to see the next steps. Keep up the great work. Peace.

@eveRide 8 лет назад

Thanks man! Yeah they did have the hard plastic "base" so I couldn't slip any lube or air down in there to make it loose. Ugh I still have the blisters! I hope the heated grips still work! haha :D

@rex4x4 8 лет назад

Compressed air makes removing your grips so much easier

@SharpMoto 8 лет назад

I will keep that in mind thanks

@rex4x4 8 лет назад

+Sharp Moto it's amazing how much easier it is

@eveRide 8 лет назад

With these heated grips they had a plastic sheath underneath that wouldn't flex to get a compressor/lubricant straw in there. I've heard that's the bees knees when the grips will flex a bit!

@eveRide 8 лет назад

lol! I tried getting a little dentist pick down in there and it bent the pick! It was either the razor or trying the heat gun. Even with the heat gun, I've got blisters!

@Astrix_Jaeger 7 лет назад

what if there is no compressed air available? any other recommendations?

@badjuju6563 8 лет назад

Much love from Australia Everide!

@eveRide 8 лет назад

Hey much love from the US! So... do you guys have Aussie Hairspray, or is that just marketing? 7:36

@DustyRobertson 8 лет назад

I've never seen it in my life mate XD Sorry but just like outback steak house its got nothing to do with us.

@eveRide 8 лет назад

Arrgh it's just the American marketing men in suits profiting off of Australia's coolness! I knew it! :D

@DustyRobertson 8 лет назад

Hahaha, it certainly worked. My brief visit to america was one of the best experiences of my life, hopefully i'll get to stay a bit longer in the years to come :D

@rubberneckrides5940 8 лет назад

A left handed drill bit is sometimes a good way to remove sheared bolts and screws.

@slime5430 8 лет назад

new sub, liking these videos. keep it up

@ertatl 7 лет назад

is the rear fender a DRZ400 fender?

@Tanks-Link 8 лет назад

FYI if you have a air compressor use air to remove and put on your grips makes it almost effortless

@colinh2468 8 лет назад

Check out the kenda track masters for high value at a low cost. Love them on my Klr.

@HeroRR 8 лет назад

Awesome video! I have some of that high heat paint too, thinking about painting my engine the same way you did yours, just a quick spray over it to make it look a bit nicer. Did you have to sand the engine case down before painting it? Did you use primer, clear coat, etc? Or just the paint and that's it? :) Thanks for the awesome content brother!

@ThomSkateFB 8 лет назад

@MrTRH0740 7 лет назад

so... I'm a bit late to this party, but does anyone know if the outback mototech crashbars for the gen 2 will fit a gen 1??

@rockyfjord 7 лет назад

I like these bars. What bend(s) should I be looking for? CR High?

@advrider7777 8 лет назад

big thumbs up mate !!!! ps can you post the lexx so i can see how it looks on my bike cheers

@rdwall64 8 лет назад

I'm not going to lie I'm kinda getting excited about this build can't wait to see how it's going to turn out !

@profitlemon5004 8 лет назад

I'm excited too and I don't even own a klr

@eveRide 8 лет назад

Haha it's so weird because I considered not posting this video because I thought it was boring! Glad you guys are enjoying it :)

@bobsullivan6857 8 лет назад

NO WAY BORING! Your vids are excellent. You and Twistedthrottle are way out front in adventure riding vids. It's real world stuff with all the fun, bruises, and scabs included. -Your camera work is good enough that we can see what you're doing. -Your sound is good enough that we can hear your narration clearly. -You do voice overs with NO music. -Your presentation is logical, energetic and positive. -Your subject matter is intensely interesting to the KLR community. We get to see you mod a KLR with some of the best aftermarket accessories available and we know that you are going to beat the living shit out of this KLR and all the cool stuff you just bolted on. And, you will take us along to see how it all works out. -And, most important, THERE AIN"T NO CHICKENSHIT MUSIC!! Boring? I don't think so.

@bobsullivan6857 8 лет назад

I meant Halfthrottle not Twistedthrottle......For some reason I can't edit the comment....

@eveRide 8 лет назад

lol! Good to hear! Hopefully when there's music in the cinematic ones it's not crap hahaha :D

@gburton9752 3 года назад

Have never seen that hairspray here in Australia

@JeremyBechtold 8 лет назад

Ever thought of going for a stormtrooper color scheme for this one?

@cyclepreacher3799 8 лет назад

Hey bro great vid! Loving the custom KLR and your cruisy attitude! Im not a chick but ive never seen that hairspray down here!

@aseredy 8 лет назад

Cannot wait to see this thing done. I love builds like these. Hey Tyler, are you really using a ruler for the bracket? Seems kinda thin, but I guess if you roll the edges, it should strengthen it up considerably. Thanks for the Vid!

@NessedUpProductions 8 лет назад

Haha, commented to early!! Nice trick with the heat gun! Yeah, next time just try some race wire, saves a headache later when you need new grips :)It's looking good man, you got a lot done already!! Those crash bars and skid plate look mean!!

@alexrhodes1207 8 лет назад

I'm pretty excited to see the final product! Do you have any suggestions for finding bikes for sale? I already use Craiglist, Ebay, and Cycletrader.

@MattPerry 8 лет назад

Does anyone knows the size of this rear tyre?

@Hehanni 8 лет назад

Check out the new Shinko 804/805's. Pretty sweet big block tread oriented for bigger bikes. More off road worthy than the 244, which I think you've tried? I've been through 3-4 sets of the shinko 244 or 705 and love then compared to equivalent Kenda's etc

@DillysADV 8 лет назад

I know it is a little late but an air nozzle blowing under the grip to slide it on or off is the best I have seen/used.

@danhillam 8 лет назад

Amen to that! (Unless you are using a bicycle pump as a compressor;)

@DillysADV 8 лет назад

That is some imagery for ya..

@eveRide 8 лет назад

Haha! The heated grips had a plastic sheath that fit over the bar so there was no flex to get an air compressor (or lubricant) in there. The heat gun was the only way :)

@logicsoundinc 5 лет назад

I've heard Aussie hairspray is from Owatonna, MN. LOL

@AdamLoya 8 лет назад

Did you use more than 5 coats for your platidip

@FstLaneUkraine 8 лет назад

Awesome stuff! I just picked up a first gen and I'm going to be doing a lot of the similar work for a trip to Mexico in 2017. Definitely curious to see how your bike turns out! Subbed.

@eveRide 8 лет назад

Nice! We just barely got the racks mounted today and put the panniers on... they are AWESOME! The rear fender is on as well. Now it's just some new fork boots, electrical, windscreen and headlight! Mmmm it's so close!

@PRTEVYBMW 8 лет назад

Very sweet! Ride on Brother:) Cheers;)

@Jannas911 6 лет назад

Hey, man I'm looking for the Crash Bars for my Gen1 please help me with an affordable option. The Outback option looks like they discontinued it.

@jered2177 7 лет назад

Like the rear fender alot better

@NessedUpProductions 8 лет назад

You ever gonna use that green screen bro!! Hehe! Man, it's gonna be awesome! That rear rack is really cool. To get grips off there are a couple tricks that work. One, use some tri flow or similar lubricant and spray inside the grip and then just twist back and forth to get off. Also, using an air compressor and getting the nozzle under the grip can help you pull it off too. Never ever ever use grip glue or adhesive, use race wire :)

@dr.doeslittle4957 7 лет назад

Ok i have an issue and ive tried klr forums but havent really got any good responses. Ive got an 01 klr 650 and am trying to find a digital speedo with hopefully other functions to use on my bike. Ive looked into acewell, koso, and trail tech. TT has alot of bad reviews when it comes to over all life of the gauge and water damage. I dont want to spend 300 plus but i dont want a crappy gauge. Any one have any ideas? Im a bit worried about compatibility but its already been a birds nest so far. It has a broken trail tech on it at the moment that came with the bike. Kinda ripping my hair out at the moment...

@stephenkbrewer8324 4 года назад

Maybe you or other viewers can help me find plastics kit for my 2005 KLR650 that I just bought used. Also is there a separate key for the gas cap or is it the ignition key? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you - S. Brewer

@goneballistic 8 лет назад

awesome video, it's looking really good. my klr is due for the same workover. sadly I plasti dipped my front fender. crap. what type of crash bars are those? and what are you going to use for rear brakes and turns?

@eveRide 8 лет назад

I've got the Outback Motortek crashbars and skidplate on there. I'm not 100% sure on the rear blinkers yet, but the rear brake will be the Tusk rear fender brake/kit from the dual sport kit.

@oldschooldirtbiker 8 лет назад

Also not being critical at all. But since you had the front-end so far apart it would have taken only a little more time to grease and service your steering head bearings. Just a thought.

@klr607 5 лет назад

Hi. Do you still recommend the Outback Motortek Crash Bars? I know the video was made a few years ago. I have a 2011 stock KLR that I would like to put crash bars and a skid plate on. I was just wondering what you recommend. Thanks.

@BikesNStuff1 8 лет назад

I always found spraying wd40 under the handlebar grip with the little red tube shoved under the rubber the best way to take of grips. Then just cleaning out the oil with break kleen.

@robertskelley3465 8 лет назад

That's basically what he was describing with the contact cleaner. I was thinking the same thing the whole time, until he said he couldn't get anything down in there, probably including the nozzle. I probably still would have tried wd40 or carb cleaner, anyways. They usually do a good job of soaking in the space between the grip and handlebar, whether u can get the nozzle in there or not.

@johnpike9612 8 лет назад

he said there was a hard plastic sleeve of some sort preventing him from getting anything in there. however i always use compressed air and a rubber tipped blow gun to seperate my grips.

@hillbillydualsport 8 лет назад

This is the 3nd or forth time rebuilding this bike? LOL good video.

@LazyR 5 лет назад

Perhaps a silly question: 6:55 do normal grips just go like that on fat bars? It would make choices a lot more plentiful as I will be rebuilding my V-Strom 650 this winter. Love your vids man, and your build vids are a nice source of inspiration to me!

@tomtraxadv2253 8 лет назад

Which truck bedliner did you use? Can you post the exact black and color?

@eveRide 8 лет назад

It's just the Rustoleum stuff from Walmart. I'm not sure if it has any other colors. The paint is Krylon Max Almond/Satin. I hope that helps!

@mitchellbaxter5189 8 лет назад

tyler, if you plan on modding the drz at all in the future I think you should consider the radiator fan mod. there are a bunch of forums on thumpertalk on how to install them and seems pretty easy to do and would be great for the black widow in that hot st George heat. I'm planning on doing it myself on my 05 E model because mine overheated recently and I had to sit there on the trail till it cooled off. if you do, you've GOT to make a video on it since so many ppl ask about it on the DRZ400 owners facebook page and the forums. or i'll make one and you can check it out?

@BenLeBlanc1 8 лет назад

Looking good bud. I am in the middle of a build of my own; a 1930 ford coupe! (Carport build!) Anyways, I have a question for you. I was wondering what your opinion of a tracker bike was. I am a newer rider (sold first bike) but don't have technical trails like yours near me in MA. Love the look of a tracker more, but don't know if they would be capable of tackling a dirt trail or two.

@eveRide 8 лет назад

Oh man I love the look of a tracker! I think that as long as you had a few knobs on the tires it should handle it, as long as it doesn't require a huge amount of suspension travel. I have been surprised by bikes I've ridden in the past that were more street bikes than anything, and still did surprisingly well in the dirt.

@kalenbelston4576 8 лет назад

Looking good! I'm ready to hear that lexx exhaust, been looking at getting one myself. Where did you find the Tusk panniers? RMATV?

@eveRide 8 лет назад

Yessir! They're REALLY affordable, too!

@elwood1935 8 лет назад

Do you have the shinko 705s on the bike. And if so what size? I don't see 130/90 17 on your Amazon link.

@eveRide 8 лет назад

Yep those are the Shinko 705s.... great tires! This link should work. I recommend the 130s on the rear, although I also have a 120 that I'm going to try. amzn.to/1OW037k

@elwood1935 8 лет назад

Got it thanks. Just picked up a KLR yesterday and have to replace the knobbies with a more street oriented tire. Thought I'd follow your advice and try the Shinkos.

@vercos007 8 лет назад

Excellent build so far mate. I love the lex exhaust, I have just put the lex on mine and it looks great, sounds sweet and gives back all that power from the over restricted, power robbing stock exhaust. You guys do get stuff alot cheaper than us in Aus though, $360 aud for a lex over here. I haven't seen those particular crash bars, I generally had a choice of sw motech, givi and happy trails...went the motech as they look cooler. Cant comment about the hair spray being in aus, I haven't seen it...but it has a kanga on the front so it must be a genuine aussie product ;). Be interested to see how u do the boots on the forks as I have to do mine on the KDX 200 very shortly, out of interest have you ever looked at a little KDX as a dual sport? Anyway really enjoying the build keep it up!

@richardwendt9266 7 лет назад

Hi Mate I'm thinking about getting a KLR, but my concern is the power. I have an old XT600 Tenere which is more powerful, so going down to a KLR is something that worries me. It's just the power to overtake as the roads I'd be riding are quite tight and cars drive super slow at times. What are your thoughts on the available power upgrades? IE big bore piston kits. There seems to be very little info on them and how effective they are or if they effect the reliability. Have you thought about doing something like that to your KLR to get more grunt? Or just a waste of money?

I know this will sound like whinning but I wish you linked the next video in a series to the previous video. I can't find part 3 and if you gave it a diffrent name I have no idea what it is.

Hey Tyler, I was wondering just which bikes you own and which you have operational. I first found your channel because of the video where you ride the KLR up a mountain on your lunch break and all you had then was the KLR. Then I saw you got the Black Widow and the KLR disappeared for while. Now not only does it seem to be back but you also have two more bikes in your garage including the Black Widow, which doesn;t look like it's ready to go anytime soon. TLDR, could you please clear up the number of bikes you own and which bikes are rideable? I'm just curious and a little confused haha.

Its looking good! Ready for an adventure yet?

almost looks like a modern bike! (Im a big fan of the gen 1 KLR650 - I think even with it's 80s styling it still looks purposeful and is more practical than the gen 2) Yours is pooking really really swanky!

Thanks! I'm excited for it to be done so I can ride it!

Sir please give me the link to the exhaust that you used. Thank you.

@HDeverythingSD 8 лет назад

or anyone else for that matter, ( I don't always reply to comments, but when I do, it's to my own)

haha! No problem I should have put it in the description: Ugh on second thought it's not giving me the links. It's easy to find, go to everide.org/RMATVMC and search for "Lexx" and it'll come right up.

+eveRide ADV ok cool I found it. I'm not sure if you already covered this or not, and sorry if you have, but what do you think about the repacking? how often, is it necessary, whare do you get the material, etc? it would help me with a better educated decision wether I should upgrade to this from the stock, or not. thank you.

According to the instructions it should be repacked quite often. However a lot of people never repack and it does fine. I was nervous the first time I repacked the FMF on the DRZ, but it was really easy and the repack material was really inexpensive.
