engine died while going 70

I second the Pelican cases recommendation but I prefer the side loading cases since I use liner bags on trips.  The Pelicans weigh less than the aluminum boxes, don't dent, don't oxidize and are less expensive. I have lots of  (off) road rash  on the Pelicans on the KLR but they are still as water (and air) tight as the were when new.From: DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com Sent: 12/ 3/ 2014 7:23 AM To: DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [DSN_KLR650] Re: build your own KLR pannier   While we ar eon the topic, We have been here before so I have this drill down now, there is one option that should be mentioned. The modern plastic cases get better every year and I would probably choose them over the aluminum if I didnt need the massive volume the aluminum boxes bring or was concerned about the money. I am fond of top loaders like the Pelican 1430 since they can be accessed even when the bike is layign on its side. I learned that while my GS with Vario cases was laying on me one time. That said the 720s are a good case too and are cheap and strong. I linked below both of these below as well as Fuerte cases with whom I have done bussiness many times. They have good prices and an amazing selection. Chris  Fuerte Cases, The Waterproof Case Company.
