I have used them on several bikes before, including bikes that didn't originally come with gaiters. Contact Fred, your local bike shop, Dennis Kirk, etc. These gaiters are virtually available everywhere and they come in a variety of colors. Jim Sherlock

Charles, Wheel chocks are available from most of the mailorder/web motorcycle accessory stores. They run the gamut from removable metal, plastic to fixed tube racks. Also look in the ad sections of Dirt Bike or Dirt Rider. I saw simple plastic wheel chocks in the last issue of Cycle News. I use a plastic model...instead of bolting or screwing to the truck bed I glued strips of heavy duty Velcro to the chock and the truck bed. When needed I put the chock in place, run the KLR into it and then use Ancra tie down straps. Works great, bike doesn't move! Tim From: "Charles Waddell" Subject: NKLR Front wheel stand for truckbed Now that I have my loose bolt problem taken care of I am ready to load up my KLR650 and my buddy's into the back of my truck to get to the good spots. One problem, I don't like the idea of just tying down the bikes in the back of the truck I want some kind of stand that will hold the front wheel in place while driving through the desert. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Charles Waddell [This message contained attachments]
