1,000 Miles on the New KLR 650: 2022 Kawasaki KLR 650 Adventure Long Term Review

Over the last two months, I've ridden my 2022 Kawasaki KLR 650 Adventure over 1200 miles. I've taken it motorcycle camping, ridden it in the mountains, taken it to the beach, done some freeway miles, and generally put it through its paces to ensure I was able to do the most thorough long term 2022 Kawasaki KLR 650 review possible. The new KLR 650 is an amazing machine, and far more capable than those who haven't ridden it give it credit for. In this 2022 KLR 650 review video, I'll run down the features of the new KLR, the pros and cons of the bike, and my overall impressions after over 1000 miles and a couple months with my 2022 Kawasaki KLR 650 Adventure.

When riding the new KLR off road, it really shines. This bike is capable and fun to ride, yet confidence inspiring and easy to handle for a newer rider. One common misconception is that the KLR can't handle highway or freeway speeds, but in my experience that's completely untrue. The Kawasaki KLR 650 highway performance is more than adequate. It'll do highway speeds with ease and even freeway riding is well within its capabilities. All in all, I think the new KLR is a fantastic bike that is easy enough for a new rider to handle, but capable enough for an experienced rider to enjoy.
