KLR 5: More travel and testing aboard the KLR650. I travel out of San Francisco to the Pacific Northwest. Along the way I show more use of the Garmin Zumo 550 and avoid hoards of deer as the sun goes down. The next morning I head out on one of the most beautiful roads in the world, in search of off-roading along the Pacific Ocean. KLR 6: Eureka! Off-road travel along the pacific coast in an incredible location. Lots of video on the use and function of the Garmin Zumo 550 as well. A dream ride! A perfect day in every way in one of the world’s most foggy locations.Some times you just hit it right.

Question: Vintage motorcycles to restore, bobber style. Kawasaki, Honda, Yamaha ?
I’m in the market for a vintage motorcycle. I really like the bobber-look, minimal frame & solo seat. I’m not looking for a ton of power as I only ride around town (never on the freeway!). I currently own a Honda CT70 that goes 50 on flat ground,but a bit more power and slightly larger frame would be ideal. (I don’t think you can really call the CT70 a “motorcycle”).
I’ve found a few different bikes in my price range by various makes. Honda, Kawasaki, Yamaha. Which is the best? Is one better than the other in terms of reliability, quality, value, service,and parts availability?
I’m currently looking at a 1975 Kawasaki 175 Enduro and a 1979 Yamaha XS 650. Thanks for any insight you can offer on these bikes and the value of the manufacturers.

Answer by tom T
if you can get a 75 enduro completely redone would be worth as much as the 650 good luck
