I'm looking for a locking hard case to mount on the luggage of my 07 klr650. I like the size of the Pelican 1520 case, but I don't want the look or hassle of padlocks. I want a flat top that can be used as a luggage rack for items that woun't fit inside. Craig Kahler |

You might want to look at the Pelican case-based Caribou system. The locks are flush mounted and waterproof. See http://www.cariboucases.com . I have about 30K miles on this system on my KLR and found it just about indestructible. [b]From:[/b] DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com [mailto:DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com] [b]On Behalf Of [/b]Craig Kahler

I plan to drive wood corks 8" into the ends of the handle bars, melt the lead in a small frying pan, lay the bike on its side, and pour the molten lead in. Any better methods/ suggestions before I get started? Craig Kahler <><><><><><><><><><><> <><><><><><><><><><><> Craig, Maybe consider using lead shot. I think the solid lead won't dampen vibrations as well as shot. Best,
