yes, yes they are.
I'm 5'8", and at stock height I can tippy-toe my KLR. I rode with it lowered for a little over a year, but increasing confidence and a desire to not wreck any more swingarms had me raising it back up to stock height.
Be forewarned - The KLR has a big gas tank, and when it's full it makes the bike *very* top heavy.
Here's mine

Well, the rad is a little grubby, but what you're seeing on the right side of the bike there that is all covered in mud spray is the cover over the coolant resevoir.
I generally wash my bike when it rains
