I see that you are probably contemplating taking 95 KTM 620 LC4 to S. America?? I am in the same boat!! Saw one for $500 and am thinking of buying it this Friday and tear it apart then rebuild it back together designed to accommodate my needs.

I may have to do some fabricating to the headlight area because I want to convert to HID headlight and add windshield to it, make a larger fuel tank, and may have to do some fabricating to the subframe supporting the pannier/luggage rack.

Send me email and let’s discuss this project?? I think as a owner you can see my email which will be hidden to public? Or PM me at advrider forum using my name I added “wkheathjr” Thanks!!

I was a motorcycle courier in San Francisco in the 90′s.
I’ve told some crazy tales in other motorcycle threads, and I would have to say you are spot on in all of your dicey tales. I worked for Speed Racer at GO! for a few months, Quicksilver and Lightning Express as well. I still love it even though I’m doing something different these days.

It will always be a great adventure that only a few will ever understand and even fewer will actually believe the truth when we tell them of an average day.

Thanks again for the great write up.

His stationing of US troops in Australia show the true intention of his provocations of Iran and Syria is to engage the major Asian Nations in combat as they undoubtedly can not isolate the middle east any longer without turning their backs on treaty agreements which have been long standing. If you wish not to see a nuclear holocaust, remove Obama. The stated intention of Obama\’s most favorite lady in all the world, Queen Elizabeth, is to reduce the worlds population down to 1 billion people, this is undoubtedly the purpose behind this drive for war. The nuclear option is the only option, should this escalate to where Obama is intending it to. We must remove him immediately.

There is a highly regarded lawyer, Prof. Francis Boyle, who has offered his services free of charge to any government official who wishes to save this planet by raising articles of impeachment in the congress or senate for president Obama. He is asking every man woman and child to call their representatives and request this action be taken. This is an interview with him, please listen to it and share it with your contact base and call your reps as often as possible on this subject. http://larouchepac.com/node/20307

Doesn’t Jordo still have the welder I gave him there at your new house that you can learn on? I know, its a funky cheapo one and not at all burl. But don’t forget that I made a trailer to tow behind my Goldwing with it, okay? So you should be able to make a moto-stand, a new frame for that engine you now have laying around, and a 4×4 tractor with front-end loader.

If Jordo passed it off to Med or someone, get on craigslist and get another. Meanwhile, I’m busy learning casting aluminum parts in a home foundry for the pumps and various tractor & motorcycle attachments I need here at the farm.

Love, Dad
