Well, got the 2002 640 Adventure today and it's the crappiest weather imaginable once again down here in the Great Wet South. Haven't gotten to go for a ride just yet but here's a lousy iphone pic at any rate!
Hi!
Next to the Kaw-powered 48" Exmark walk behind...
This is the 3rd LC4-powered machine I have owned... first was a 2002 LC4E and after that an '03 625 SXC. Looking forward to putting this thing through the paces.

what bar risers are those? is there a steering stabilizer?
how many miles are on the 640?
sorry for all the question...I am a fan and owner of the 640 adventure

Got any pics/details of you 2 up on the 640? I've been wanting a 640 as it'll be better than my XRL for 2 up riding.PEI 2up '09
Ride report for that trip?
Thanks

I put up a gallery and wrote a little in each caption on my SmugMug to read like an RR. Here.

No stabilizer on this one, although I had them on both my previous LC4's. Colin over at Stenhouse Racing makes a really nice setup and knows his KTMs. I might put one on in the future, but not in the budget right now.
I bought this beauty with 8500 miles on it. I can't think of a single thing it needs. Came with a bunch of stuff not even mounted on the bike... Touratech luggage rack extension, TT headlight guard, skid plate, brand new set of tires, suitcase racks, loud airhorn (always wanted one of these!), speed bleeders on the forks, the bar risers, a better looking recovered seat, a better looking high fender, probably some other stuff I am forgetting.
Can't wait for the weather to break for her maiden voyage tomorrow. Supposed to FINALLY have a nice sunny day here.

Okay, I take it back... I need those carbon fiber tank guards! Very nice!

Sounds like a good story involving the fire ring!
No, I haven't gotten anything about how to get a set of those. If you have contact info that would be awesome!
Battey, nice XT. Don't see many 350's around!

i am wondering how you came to that decision? i owned an 03 640 and it was the same as all the other big thumpers in that regard. i rode with my wife on the back of my old KLR and the 640 and the cagiva elefant, all the same to me. she doesnt ride on the ATK as its just not set-up for a passenger.
