I had a friend build something similar for my FZR400 that I used to race. There was a lengthy discussion on this topic you colds review in the archives. I also saw one recently in, I think, City Bike, that had a KLR on it. I am very happy with my setup. It works great but I have it on the back of a 3/4 ton Suburban. I have never hauled my KLR on it but when I designed it I tried to accommodate one. Mark McCoy Bentleyj3@... wrote:

Way to go Raamses! You're half way there. I'd loosen up the intakes one. No good having them go tight on you. I don't think the exhaust side is as prone to tightening up, so I can't advise there... Anyone? Cheers, Arne
