My 2005 KLR always has a least one milk crate on the back. Since I use my KLR all winter long (Pennsylvania) I was wondering if I could take the small stock battery out, put a plastic battery case in the crate, add a bigger 12 volt battery to that case and then use proper gauge wire to connect it to where the wires are under the seat. As far as milk crates go, I have had 3 high stacked on the back when I go for some groceries. 8-) Tom SW Pennsylvania

Tom, I would like to see that stack! Long time poster/lurker "Devon" of NYC posted a pic some 5 years ago that showed his winterized KLR stacked at least 3+feet tall (yes, and a snow drift in the background) with groceries--and judging from the pictures, he had small children, or some other unidentified need for pampers! revmaaatin.

Can anyone identify the music in the last half of the video? I'd like to know who did it.
