Don't like sumthin about it...sure this one has that too.....it is one HUGE bag that you can stuff in, electronics included and not worry about rain or even falling in a river..lol.

But no sub-compartments .... just one tiny one for a cell and ID and such. But the good waaaaaay overweights the bad.

Only way a camel back would work is to mount it outside on the back bungi mesh...otherwise it would not be water tight....which is number one for me because my laptop has zero tolerance, obviously.

Funny this topic came up. I am about to renew my relationship with Cascades Designs who sell the packs below as well as MSR bottles. Anyone have any experience with either. I was thinking of adding one of each to my order and then selling the ones I dont want.
Black Canyon Boundry Pack


Pro Pack

Urban Pack

Are you thinking of a portable fuel bladder for the KLX?

Is this a review of a backpack or adverstising of one? Photo makes it hard to decide.

If she comes with it, I'll take two......

Seriously though I need a new pack this might just be up my alley

If she came with it the company couldn't keep up with the demand.

It'd be hell on the shoulders and back until you burned it off.

Seems like a camelback for fuel with quick disconeects would not be a bad idea. could make one that straps over the tank or onto rear rack.

Not a real camelback worn on the back but a fuel resistant bladder like used for extending range on boats. Something you could mount when you wanted either on the rack or over the top of the tank like a tank bag. Just a thought
