BMW F800GS or Kawasaki KLR650 Best?

I know a couple of you favor the Bavarian F800GS adventure motorcycle, while others argue the Kawasaki KLR 650 is superior. http://www.motorcycleusa.com has just posted a totally subjective look at both motorcycles and the conclusion of my associate Mr. Tim Bernard, who tested them with me.

I'll see some of you Feb. 16, at ALASKA NIGHT IN THAILAND at the Rider's Corner http://www.riderscorner.net where you can be a critic of my work to my face....Otherwise send your keystroke warrior critiques to Bernard :-)

Cheers,

Dr. G
 
They are pretty different animals from a price perspective.

Both bikes have significant limitations.

In the USA where KLR's can be bought relatively cheap it's a tough act to beat.
