Default Finally got my KLX dirty...

I finally got my bike dirty...I did it by falling.



...and...



That fall tweaked my ankle a bit so I wised up, got back on tarmac and rode out onto Jean Dry Lake Bed (a bit NE of Jean, NV which is the second "town" north of the CA/NV stateline on I-15).

Before you know it with a couple more innocent falls like that and you'll break the hand guards and bend the stock bars making the ride home almost impossible. Not being a pessimist but it happened to me, so if I could offer some advice it would betwo fold.

#1 invest in a good pair of bars

#2 get a good set of brush guards

They are both worth their wieght in GOLD and have saved my **** a million times.
Stay Safe

The second pic on a quick glance made your bike look like it was flying solo until I took a better look
