So I see now that the military is dumping a lot of money into an electric motorcycle hybrid that also still can run on diesel but want the stealth of the electric for various missions. Currently the klr on diesel gets about 100 mpg. The question is are they going to mount it into a klr chassis? You can mount an electric motor into anything really. Theres currently two Hondas on youtube running an electric motor home built and it rips. Curious if anyone knows if they are going to keep the klr line with it. If not we are gonna be getting some military sales klrs running amuck. I wouldn't mine one to be honest. I guess the latest pretty much is a multifuel and can run on kerosene to diesel and such. Anyone catch any articles about this?
I always liked them to be honest they are like the deuce and a half in the kawi enduro line.
