Seriously thou, you should get $3,500 easy. If you do switch bikes make sure its gonna do what you want, the klr is not a light dirt bike. If you are thinking klr make sure you look at or consider a used ktm adv
BTW ever since I have gotten that ktm adv the klx seems like a fun light little toy that loves the sand. The ktm is a LOT of work to ride offroad and it is more offroad orientated than a klr. Keep it simple just get both.

If your bike is burning that much oil, shoudln't it be smoking considerably? I'd think you would at least see/smell it? Maybe an upper oil passage is plugged and the oil is building up somewhere?
