Missed that one. Would be cool for a museum ect. Somewhere I saw a very old triumph still in the crate just a few months ago.

NDT; they did this to a lot of 650s for the Marine corp. a little less power than the gas - the motor has been converted by a comp. in calif. I belive. Try the past Rider mag. for details or go to klr650.com and ask for the link.

there are several 650's in the GL auction in San Antonio in various stages of repair. except for the changes on the motor and gas tank most of this is over the counter - klr 650.com is a good source for parts. I have used them for years for my bike and they are vary helpfull. out of Spokane Wash.

The parts bikes at Ft Sam sold about a month ago. The one in the crate was discussed at our MVPA meeting last night and the consensus seemed to be that it might have been run out of the box with no fluids (the way they are shipped) and seized the engine. While I'm sure a replacement motor would be fairly cheap, this buyer may not know exactly what they are getting.

Any reason why you guys would think it was run without fluids?

It had more miles than the factory test would have put on it. Just seems kind of funny that a unit would get it on their books and then put less than 5 miles on it. Whether or not it is seized is just idle speculation. For the buyer's sake I certainly hope we're wrong.
