Hey Scott...had to regroup and sold the 625 (still miss it)...I'll probably sell a couple more bikes (the KLX400SR and the ZX-12R) and keep just two (the KLR650 and ZX-10R)...got into a bicycling fit this past month...something about weak knees and running the desire to maintain my overall fitness (especially when out chasing or tracking the bad guys)...bought a couple of new not-so-cheap bicycles, one road bike, one mountain bike...so that's why I should sell a couple of my Kawasakis to help off-set that bicycling expense (and we think motorcycle parts are expensive????)...still enjoy that KLR immensely and the 10R is a no-brainer for my needs right now...and yes, I am a wimp, but I'll still crush those who are wimpier than me

If I was to post this in the 'classifieds' it would be listed as a California licensed 2003 KLX400SR for sale $4200USD firm...it has never been dropped, has 1400 non-abused miles (scared slow-poke that I am and mainly I used it for trail-riding, although it has seen 65~85mph on the freeway at times but only because I had to get there quickly instead of usinf the backroads and trails)...almost fresh Dunlop 606s, White BRos. bashplate, IMS Pro pegs, case cover savers, CR bend handlebars, and a new OEM battery...and yes, if I can get some time off for SportbikeWest, I will attempt or actually bring it up there to you in a truck...I own the bike and the title is clear...deal?
