I think that if you go to KL650.net and ask a few questions you will get all the answers you need .
But a good idea would be to get a list of the tools in the bike's supplied kit and then replace them with higher quality tools .
Also check out some of the blogs on this site by KLR riders and glean information about additional tools you might need.
Mollydog [Patrick] has a good generic toolkit photo that he has posted here - that would give you some idea of what you need .
One tip from me - buy your tools in the USA they will be cheaper and of better quality .
All the Best for a Happy New Year !

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
