The Kawadizzle finds a new home

The KLR 650 has a new owner.  Two young guys showed up from Williston and took the steed away. Kadizzle will miss the KLR.  The KLR has a fine reputation as a means to explore on a budget.  The KLR is an an adventure cycle.  Adventure motorcycles are meant to take you down the highway and the dirt roads that ensnare our country.   The idea with an adventure bike is to pack all your gear on a motorcycle and take off to explore the world.  Years ago Kadizzle came across some adventure bike riders on the Mexican border and always has been drawn to the idea.  Three young guys about to head through South America on an adventure.  The nice think about an adventure bike is you can drive right down the beach, right up the mountain, or right beside the lake.  Once you park your bike you unroll your sleeping bag and do da there you are.  It is a trip for a young guy, not a 67 year old Kadizzle. Now Kadizzle will be served by his loyal Yamaha 250.  The Yamaha is ideal for Kadizzle. It is just the right size can go on the highway and the dirt.  The Yamaha does not have the highway speed the KLR did, but that ain't all bad.  It will keep you out of some trouble.  When the Yamaha falls on you out in the boondocks it is a situation you can recover from. You cannot afford to have the KLR fall on you, and when it does, it will be a real strain getting it up again.  So the bottom line is Kadizzle has to reluctantly admit he is 67 and has to ride a pony not a race horse.
