I just sold my 2021 XT250 and purchased a base '22 KLR (pick it up tomorrow). Guess I have to give some credit to DITR for that. FWIW - i have the Double Take mirrors and they have moved on each successive bike I buy (TW200, CB750, XT250). I crashed a lot on my TW & XT in the silt and sand of CA deserts. Within my first couple offs I destroyed the glass in my Double-Take mirror. If you break the glass, they don't warranty it - you have to buy the glass from them. The glass breaks just as easily on a DT mirror as the stock; that's a thing I don't see enough folks talking about. Keep the great content coming!
Just got my new 2022 KLR. Base model with ABS. Waiting for my crash bars from Dirt Track, Tusk panniers and racks, Happy Trail skid plates, IMS foot pegs, Oxford heated grips and the DC power outlet with dual USB adapter. Stoked!!
I’m out of bend and just got a 22’ as well thanks for the clarification that most aftermarket from the previous gen will not fit the third! Traded my Harley for mine, best decision I’ve made I ride it 3 times as much
I was very excited when you got the same bike as me. I have the pegs/lever but not the heated grips as I am in the southeast. Rox risers brought the bars a little closer and higher for a more comfy position and I have already tested my Ricochet Off-road skid plate and it works/looks great. Have fun, love watching.
Great mods & wow, what a beautiful mountain/forest backdrop for your video, well done. PS, I run the oxford heated grips and IMS pegs on all my bikes, great products.
Man, nice one of the first things I did to my new KLR is to replace the stock hand grips with some pillow top grips, what a difference, next will be those tusk handguards !
Nice Vid Dork. I'm watching and was glad to see you chose Tusk shifter because mine just came in. Was hoping they would fit. I can say also that the JT 16 t front sprocket fits the 2022. I love my KLR. Dealer is putting my oem hot grips on too. Keep up these updates because I'm doing mine at the same time. Thanks man.
The quad lock is the best phone holder for the bike IMO. Have the same setup on my Africa Twin! One of the best parts of owning a bike is modding it lol I’m looking forward to seeing the KLR progress to where you want it to be!
Nice, thanks for the video...good stuff. My first mod on my KLR is with the shifter lever. I bought the lever from Happy Trails. I think its a little bigger than the Tusk which helps to fit my size 14 boot. I'll be doing the the same pegs and mirrors you've installed, thanks for the tips. I also have on "preorder" a centerstand from Happy Trails made for the 2022 KLR. They tell me should ship in December. Keep the videos coming!
Dude!!! Thank you so much for the foot peg link. I felt like the factory one's were going to fall off. Lol. Also I appreciate the fact you don't ask for $ support other than using your links. Others..... want support right off. It's like where I live a person holding a sign at a stop light wanting help when there is a McDonalds sighn 15 ft away with a $500 hiring bonus. Lol. Thank you so much for the channel and what you do! And yes like you said give my klr a chance. I like it better now.
I bought a pair of Hippo Hands for my Super Tenere after your video about them from the Rally - they better be awesome because those puppies weren't cheap!
My first modification was the addition of deer whistles.theyre a must where I live and I've seen several deer already do a double take and not jump into my path.I actually totaled my cruiser a few years ago when I hit a deer going about 60 mph and since I'm religious I believe it was by the grace of God I wasn't seriously injured.in fact I wasn't injured at all.ever since then any bike I own gets deer whistles on day one.
Great Stuff Dork. Got the exact same bike with most of the same upgrades. Question - why wouldn't you use ever use the rally lights? I find them very useful day time driving for extra visibility for the motorcycle-blind drivers on the road and for night time use especially when going down old logging roads. Try them out! Cheers
Looks awesome. I want to get a KLR to ride similar road/trails up here in WA. Those mods are also added to my list for whenever I get the bike. (Hopefully mid/late 2022)
I put the Koso Apollo heated grips on my G310GS, expecting them to be a nice luxury farkle. I use them all the time and love them! Been riding since 1975 and this is the first time I tried heated grips. They should be standard equipment.
Dirttacks products are pretty popular in the KLR650 community. They have Pannier racks out now. Hopefully they will releases a 2022 version of their wrap around crash bars.
Great recommandations for mods. One thing I couldn't work out on my KLR were the Tusk D-Flex handguards, whether the regular nor the Adventure model. I just can't find the position on the bar to mount and align the clamp. I'm trying to get some Barkbusters instead.
LOve the video, just want to point out you dont need to wire to your bat the wiring harness has a builtin plug and play connector under the dash for your heated grips!
Hey internet riding buddy. I picked up the Tusk D-Flex pro handguards for my 22 KLR just like yours. It looks like you used some type of spacer to help with the fit and the original bolt. Where did you get the spacer? I'm struggling to get a good fit and already snapped off the stock bolt on the right side. Any help for a fellow dork would be appreciated. Love the channel!
I heard a lot of people say those k750 tires will surprise u offroad {in a good way, LOL} when aired down to 19 rear 22 front. Not buying til spring, but will probably keep those stock tires one for awhile then switch to Tusk Dsports
If you buy the touring oxford grips they are .47" shorter than the adventure grips. So shouldn't require any trimming. Have not gotten mine yet for my 2022. Will confirm after install.
Hey Dork. Thanks for the great video. Have you made any other mods to the KLR? I'm purchasing one for me and the wife and will be using this video as my template mod video. Thanks again and keep it real man!
Excellent video. I’m just super worried about my doohickey, it’s all I think about whenever I ride. Just knowing my doohickey could fail at any given moment and my entire engine will explode is nerve racking. I have the Kawasaki four year extended engine warranty, but still worried it will fail and leave me in the middle of nowhere. What should I do?
Do you feel that the "Factory" crash bars are good enough? Are you going to replace them? Your correct about the pannier manufacturer. What do you think about those? (Other than the fact that you're replacing yours with your larger bags.) Lastly, what about a taller, wider windshield? Any thoughts
Great vlog, thx! Was the KLR's 1/2 price of a Tenere 700 the primary reason you went with Kawasaki over Yamaha, were there other factors? What about suspension, I understand for 2021 the KLR was stiffened (so many complained the previous generation bottomed out), so is it now strong enough for moderately aggressive trail ridding, what is your weight?
I went with the KLR because I couldn't get a Tenere...and now I have a Tenere and no KLR. Suspension is adequate at best, but it's still softer than I'd like at 260 pounds.
Hey Ben, well done video! From one former Africa Twin owner to another (good job taking off your accessories BTW, I gave too many accessories away free as mine was significantly farkled), now that you've had the KLR for a minute, to what extent are you feeling a difference in performance between the AT and the KLR? Simply said, is the KLR feeling sluggish in comparison, and if so, how are you feeling about that? I know you recently rode the Tiger 900 Rally which has AT like performance. I'm interested in your comments because I am giving some though to a KLR.
I’m hours from going to get my Orange (favorite color)KLR650. I keep thinking, should a 76 year old , out of shape, so I’m told, be getting involved in this sport? Well, I am.
What do you think of the stock crash bars that come with the adventure ? I am so close to putting a deposit down. The rear of the bike is what concerns me the most as I will be doing most of my riding without the rear side panniers.
I picked up a longer/beefier shifter from Happy Trails Moto. I would really like to move the footpegs back an inch or 2 as I think they are to far forward. When I stand on the bike my body wants to fall backwards and so I have to keep constant pull on the bars.
Quick question Dork. How are you finding the suspension at medium speed, say 20mph over uneven terrain? And secondly how much do you weigh as I'm seriously thinking about purchasing this mc.....?
Honestly, it's fantastic. I cranked up the preload and rebound on the rear (which is insanely easy...you just need a 10mm socket and a flat head screwdriver) and it handles me and my weight just fine, even hitting big potholes at 40+. I weigh 260 at present.
@@DorkintheRoad Thanks brother! That was a concern that a big guy at 235 lbs would overload the stock suspension. Thx for the quick reply! Respect, and you have 1 more subscriber! Russ
Hey Dork! I’m waiting to pick up my 2018 crf250l Rally... Anticipating mods, I’m wanting to add some daytime running lights (possibly Amber) to the front for extra safety precaution, mounted sort of like the fog lights on your new klr... Can you suggest the best way to wire the lights? should they be hooked straight to the battery on a separate switch? Should I tie them into the headlight? Should I use the accessory wire that will also be used for the accessory plug? Any input would be greatly appreciated!
I literally had to hammer them in. I also stuck a screwdriver through from the other side to help line up the hole and used vice grips to hold everything in place.
Have you found CRASHBARS for gen 3 yet? Ive been searching with no luck. I just bought a set of gen 2 to see how much modification would be required to get it to fit, but ill return if theres some for this one is available.
KLR has plenty of juice. I run heated grips and a heated seat on mine as well as charge my phone with zero problems. I also have the gen II and halogen headlight bulbs.
@@DorkintheRoad thank you so much also do you have a video on how bright the “fog” lights are? I just ordered mine from Kawasaki an kinda Nervous! Love the videos keep up the good work!
@@DorkintheRoad I try to svoid it to but once your in the woods it's already darker. I'm running an led headlight and a single row led bar 10in. I cruise corn fields here in Illinois too at dusk that bar really helps see any deer

any idea if the KLR will get a power commander or EJK?
Really loved the video, where is this in NH? Also where do you find trails in New England, like any sites or forums in particular?
I just sold my 2021 XT250 and purchased a base '22 KLR (pick it up tomorrow). Guess I have to give some credit to DITR for that. FWIW - i have the Double Take mirrors and they have moved on each successive bike I buy (TW200, CB750, XT250). I crashed a lot on my TW & XT in the silt and sand of CA deserts. Within my first couple offs I destroyed the glass in my Double-Take mirror. If you break the glass, they don't warranty it - you have to buy the glass from them.

Looking good man. You can tell your excited about the new ride! Congrats man.
Siiicckkkk. Gotta love this new content. Nobody else is covering this bike like this.
I was very excited when you got the same bike as me. I have the pegs/lever but not the heated grips as I am in the southeast. Rox risers brought the bars a little closer and higher for a more comfy position and I have already tested my Ricochet Off-road skid plate and it works/looks great. Have fun, love watching.
I recently got my first dual sport and It is a 2011 klr, super pumped I found your videos keep it up !
I love the new bike and the mods...can't wait to see it in person.
Great mods & wow, what a beautiful mountain/forest backdrop for your video, well done. PS, I run the oxford heated grips and IMS pegs on all my bikes, great products.
It was a good excuse to ride up there 😁
You live in a beautiful place, great review, keep them coming.
Thanks, man!
Man, nice one of the first things I did to my new KLR is to replace the stock hand grips with some pillow top grips, what a difference, next will be those tusk handguards !
I love the pillow tops, but really wanted heated grips for all my winter riding.
Yea man!!
It’s going to be bad ass when you get done. Good job Ben.
Nice Vid Dork. I'm watching and was glad to see you chose Tusk shifter because mine just came in. Was hoping they would fit. I can say also that the JT 16 t front sprocket fits the 2022.

Great video, how difficult was the install on the hand guards?
Not difficult. You just have to futz with it a bit to get everything to line up. I did have to bend the inside ends a little to get them to fit flush.
Ok thanks!

Hows the device bar for vibration?
Regarding upgrading food pegs. I just replace with KX250 pegs.
Great info did you remove the air box snorkel ?
You really should keep the panniers. When you sell it, you will wish you had then since those are standard with your model.

I have the Kawasaki four year extended engine warranty, but still worried it will fail and leave me in the middle of nowhere. What should I do?
They don't fail suddenly, from what I've heard. It wears out over time. Even Eagle Mike himself says you can wait 5k miles to do it
Mods are looking good! What size Tusk D-Flex Pro fits your klr? I saw they have an option for 7/8" or 1 1/8" bars.
Dealers are adding crazy markup to this Bike. Its so upsetting. Can you tell us what was your ODT price?
Thanks for the update Dork! Does the mount for your Garmin XT charge it as well like the phone?
The mount doesn't, but the USB cable does. You can wire it up to charge from the mount but the USB is so easy I haven't bothered
What about thermo-bob and the dohicky mods?
Damn it's beautiful where you live.
I'm very lucky, for sure.
@@DorkintheRoad - Be a nice place to live for most of the year in retirement. Hmm.... ;^)
What’s the next big touring bike to put in the stable? Maybe a Triumph Tiger 1200?
Do the Tusk D Flex hand guards hit the auxiliary light button on the 22 adventure model? Did you have to do something to avoid that happening?
When you go on ,long hauls up to a month what spare parts/ tools would you recommend carrying? Are parts available world wide for your bike?
