I dont think its that hard to pass on the klr, but all passing maneuvers need to be planned and executed in advance of when you actually want to do it. For example, if you are passing someone after a long sweeper, give some space between you and the bike you are passing before the curve like 50 or so feet. then accelerate through the corner as hard as possible and start to pass while exiting the corner, when you also happen to have maximum visibility. Doing it this way will also allow you to suggest to the KLR that it might be time to slow down if there is a vehicle in the oncoming traffic lane.
