Is this rider on this forum ?
Hello all , I am a member of another forum that I will not mention because it might not be allowed anyway. There is a guy there that has not been online for some time and im a bit worried if hes OK. He went on a trip from USA to south America. Last message from him was when he was in Colombia. During his trip he met another person from USA in south America. His name is something Crawford.

Mr. Crawford is to the left on the KLR , the Suzuki member we are missing to the right.



The thing im wondering is if Mr. Crawford is in the forum and if so does he have contact with the suzuki rider we are missing on the other forum ? Im hoping they exchanged phone numbers.

Thank you in advance.

Hi
If that Crawford is the same than this one, we cross paths him on the road to the HU-Viedma Meeting back in Dec 09, He was going to BA to meet his wife & daughter and was travelling alone for a while. Maybe Ken & Carol Duval knows more because they was for longer up in Bolivia & then in BA. Crawford Email: ericksons at ameritech dot net

The cases on the Kawasaki KLR650 are Pelican Cases. 1550 model I think. used a lot to carry cameras and other sensitive equipment.

Pretty bomb proof, but most of their cases that work well on bikes are side loaders and many don't like them for that.

I've got Pelican 1520's on my '09 KLR and they work fantastic.
