If they weren't so much money I'd have one on the dominator.

You should know after all these years not to ask Tym a question Bob!

Cos invariably you'll be no wiser after he's answered you!

Do it. I put one on my xr650r  and it transformed it.

After I installed the big block kit in it and bumped it up to 680cc it was almost impossible to start when hot and there was a 50/50 chance the bastard would try to break your foot while kicking it.

All that went away when converted the carb to a flat slide double pumper.

1 to 2 kicks cold or hot and she fires right up.

 

I used a Edlebrock #3115 double pumper on mine.

They list one for your klr as well. Last time I checked they were about $400 bucks
