I forget what he broke. Something electrical iirc. It was a simple 2 minute fix. He rides the crap out of that bike, too. I wouldn't be concerned.
The crazy Kawasaki is a ratted out KLR and it belongs to a friend of mine here in Tulsa. There was a KTM 450 exc on the ride with us who turned back halfway through the day because it was too rough. The guy on the KLR rode with us the whole day
