It was recommended that I introduce myself to the Forum officially here.
So I am!
Officially I like Anonymity, but it's hard to stay that way once people start seeing the stuff I design and build.
I live North West of Fort Worth in a little town with a population of only 365. And I've been building cars, 4 X 4 trucks, Hot Rods, Race Cars, Motorcycles and bicycles all my life. Now that I'm retired I have a lot more time to use all the tools I've spent a lifetime collecting and learning how to use.
Being a KLR Owner too, I am, in the KLR fashion, a cheap SOB! I buy stuff then modify it my way until it does and fits my needs.
My Motto is: "Nothing Mechanical is Sacred in my World."
I'm a Fabricator and a Problem Solver. I've been called a Mechanical Genius, but I don't put that on my Christmas cards.
Don't believe everything you read either!
Oh and for the Record, Clifford is not my real name!
My real name is Curtis! I was supposed to be named Clifford, but the nurse at the Hospital when I was born couldn't spell Clifford. I think her son was named Curtis and they both started with a "C"!
So I'll answer to either and a few more! You can call me Clifford!
Been hanging around this Forum since I decided to buy the Tenere so I could find out if it was a good choice for me.
So far I think so!
This Forum is definitely worth Hanging onto.
So Howdy Ya'll!
p.s. I also own a Ducati Elefant, A Triumph Tiger, a diesel KLR and a bunch of other bikes in various states of assembly.
It's an Addiction!

When you have time how about some pics and history and specs of your diesel KLR. We have an other bike thread and i'm sure others guys would enjoy hearing of it. Thanks Mark
