Mike, I hear what you're saying. I had the same ideas a while ago and had to make something that would carry (support) more weight when needed. I took an 18" square plate of old state highway sing aluminum and notched one side (end) to clear the seat when removed and cut a hole for the stock KLR tool bok too. I drilled the stock luggage rack twice on each side so bolt the plate to. I have a rectangular milk crate bolted to the plate most of the time to carry crap in. It ain't pretty but it works great. Besides, If you wanted to be pretty, you sohould have bought a KTM or Beemer . I can unbolt the milk crate in minutes if I need to but I don't that often. I lined the front of the plate up with the back of the seat so a few inches of the plate hang over the back of the stock rack. My milk crate is bolted ot the plate towards the rear of the plate, giving me more room infront of the milk crate to bungy other crap to the seat, like a sleeping bag, tent, bed rool, etc. Works for me. Will send pics if you email me direct. Tim --- Mike Peplinski wrote:
