Well...I had one of those like 9-10 years ago. I sold it knowing I had a special little bike. That one was used by the MP in Valcartier.
Yesterday, I bought another one. I'll be picking it up on monday. It has only 4400 km on the clock and the engine was recently rebuilt. The bike is complete with its panniers, and it was rebuilt from the frame up. They are basically regular commercial bikes taken off the assembly line and painted flat green over the original ''purple''... My new KLR had its frame sandblasted and the correct color was applied.

I'll be posting pictures sometime next week. Meanwhile, I'm mostly going to try to gather as much informations as I can with the help of FB. (Maybe some on my former army buddies can remember if they've seen it and even better: They took a picture). The bike will receive its markings and I need to do it right. It was supposedly brought to Québec from B.C.
