Love the newer KLR design. The older ones are excellent bikes, but I can't get over the fact that they look like a stepladder on wheels!

Fuel economy claims

Okay, we've all been entertained by the 100+ mpg claims given by the manufacturers and vendors of the Chinese 200cc dual-sports, and have long since determined them to be heavily distorted. ...

That motor'll treat you right. Not sure if it will be quite as zippy as the Honda engine, though.

That's what I used; I had some pieces left over from some that had to be cut to fit a snowmobile. They work just fine, but I would think a cutting board would work just about as well.

I would spend a few hundred more and get the KLX250. I am assuming it has quite a bit more power and top end than the Honda.

Re: gas cap fuel guage

Unlikely you'll find anything that would work in a GY-5 tank. The tank is not shaped to allow the float assembly of a gauge-type cap to reach to the bottom of the tank.
