I think they photoshopped alot of the black smoke clouds out of the picture.
I think the civilian version comes with a lemony scented airwick. I could
be wrong, though.

Both Army and Marines have been using the KLR based Diesel bikes since the
late 80's. They first saw combat in Desert Storm #1. I think this is a
new engine though, as I believe the original's were the stock kawi thumper
motor's modified to run diesel.
