nklr jealous of you southwest listers

[JD]

Greetings Collective.....just returned from a vacation trip (in the cage unfortunately) to New Mexico and Colorado. I can honestly say that I am jealous of the members of the collective from this part of the country. So many dirt roads up into the mountains that I lost count. I think my wife was tired of hearing me say "sure wish I had the KLR out here". We went through Sante Fe, NM., spent a day hiking at Bandelier Nat. Monument, then headed up to Red River, NM. for two more days of hiking in the mountains. Trip then took us up to the Great Dunes Nat. Monument in Colorado. A huge 6900' sandbox at the base of the Rockies. Spent another day hiking here in the sand and snow! Oh well.....guess it's good to be back home in Texas, need to recover from all that hiking.

I have rebuilt my computer at work recently and lost all my old url lists. I remember seeing someone selling a replacement rear rack for the KLR. It was wider to accomodate a duffle bag. Anyone know who makes this? Anyone have it? Impressions?

CBT Imports makes it. 1 800 782 4686. They are in San Jose, Ca. Jeff is your man. I am impressed with it. It is good looking and sturdier than the stock unit as well as wider. Numerous slots and holes for fastening gear. One suggestion, I would insert the threaded holes in the stock rack where this one attaches with Keenserts, Timeserts,or Helicoils ( I don't like Helicoils but they are easy to find). The aluminum casting of the stock rack is soft and the screws gall easily, one or two times in and out and they will strip.

Fred Hink shows a picture of a "Top of the Line" rack under his new items. Is that the one you are thinking of? I was thinking of checking it out myself. Don Detloff Fair Haven, MI A14
