kle500 fuel tap question

[wristjob]

a friend bought a kle500 yesterday(against my advice)its horrid.
from what i can see it looks like an er5 in a taller frame with motorcross bars .
anyway its had a nice yard brush paint job and the funny beer can ring pull fuel tap has no markings on it.
its currently in the middle position.
is up normal and down reserve?
pictures and advice please.

Forwards = on.
Down = prime.
Back = reserve.

thanks, i think i see what you mean but a picture would be nice.
friend has no internet because he is a tramp(ok he lives on a boat but i call him a tramp)

I dunno come on here telling us the KLE is "Horrid" and then want help ??

Well Feck off





As Stinky says forward or fully clockwise is normal position, fully anti clockwise is reserve and halfway between the two i.e. down is prime. I'm sure you can work that out without a photo ?

yup i probably can with your excelent description.
and as its not my bike why shouldnt i think its horrid.
some people drink wine when beer is available.
we all have different tastes.
my friend has just got rid of a cx500 and loves his kle because it is light and fluffy

Love it or hate it, you have got to admit that the KLE500 represents the best value for money when buying a brand new bike today. Less than £3K last november.
