I just cannot get to like the new look, I like the looks of my 07. Wonder how long that lead for the digital speedo will last before it gets ripped out?

ps. I love the look of the '07 as well and wouldn't rule out one if the price was right for a brand new one but the hard start really bugs me and I don't want to go down that road again.

RE: 09 KLX Pic's
IG,
I rolled by bike outside last Sunday to mount my skid plate. After getting it mounted I turned on the fuel,pulled the choke& hit the starter........10sec..sputter,sputter,vroom!
That was after sitting from tht 1st week of last Dec.
The 07 or the 09 will probally be the same but I must say the 09 pics are growing on me!

RE: 09 KLX Pic's
yeah, after I rejetted mine it would start up pretty good. But after winter break which was like 5 mos. with no start I had to hook it up to my van to get the juice needed to crank. It was a bear sometimes and really pissed me off. The DRZ otoh, was like an electric engine. Too bad one can't fit the DRZ engine with the KLX tranny into a KLX chassis. That'd rock. And no the 331 still wouldn't hold a candle to the DRZ's torque. A piped and jetted 40 rwhp DRZ makes a ton of torque. Why doesn't Suzuki update that bike? It could be the ds that everyone is after. New styling, 6-speed tranny, inverted forks, softer seat, 6-speed tranny. That's about it and it'd kill. [X(]

I held off on buying the KLX300 rear fender until I saw the 09 at the show.
I will be putting an 09 front fender on because my 06 is cracked and I don't like how far forward and down it goes. It will require inletting the bottom of the front plasticpiece.
I also plan to use just the green part of the 09 rear fenderto fab up a new much shorter rear end. I took close up pics and from what I can tell the fender attaches the same under the seat area. Can't wait to have a short green tail !!!

what's the difference in the lead between the old KLX and the new one?The cables are bothrouted the same way. It isn't in any more of a vulnerable position as your bike's cable is. What makes a difference if it's digital or analog, it's still routed the same way. Care to clarify something that I'm just not seeing? thx
