I have the opportunity to buy a 2008 KLR650.  I have sat on the bike and my feet do touch the ground.  The seat is comfy and generally I do like the bike.  I am EXTREMELY dumb on things mechanical.  However I have read that this particular model bike is an oil guzzler.  Do all of these bikes use oil, or is it only some? Being mechanically retarded should I give it a miss?  I fully realize that the generalities applied are dangerous, and that one bad report outweighs the 100 non spoken happy ones.  My riding will be sedate, I hope, as I am the wrong side of 65.  I know that the final decision is mine.  The bike is at Adventure MX in Pretoria.  Anyone prepared to take a look and give another opinion.
