I wish I could afford a KLR 650, but I also hear they can be a little heavy for off road. (I am a Kaw fan

A China bike just might be the ticket for you.
If you want one all put together and set up, Bruce and Endless Journey Cycles in Ohio might be fairly close for you.

He will set it up and check it out. Also you won't have any issues with getting an MSO from him.
