Question for kle500 owners and ex-owners
Hello!
While seeking for the perfect budget travel bike i noticed that the kle500 is liquid cooled and not to mention a 2-cylinder one (never been a fan of single cylinder vibration). Apparently aside from the top end the engine is exactly the same as ex500/gpz500s, er-5 and en-500. I found a register of ex500 users and many of them gave in at ~100-120k km and after a bit of google found that most common cause was big-end bearing failure. I'm assuming that the kle is slightly tuned towards less high rpm power and more towards low-mid torque.
What i want to ask is, how many miles/kilometers have you gotten out of a kle500? What other real problems(structural; clutch, transmission, compression, bearings, frame etc.) have you had?
