Thats pretty much my thought, especially since there were 4 of them!

I was more worried about the hooks bending than the straps

I didn't know there was 4 of them.

Still not sure I'd do it on my bike... but I bet that KLR weights about half of my Ultra.

400 lbs dry, I'm not sure I would do that on your bike either. if I wreck mine, I can buy a 100% complete parts bike for under $500 that runs shittily and replace anything I need to in just a few hours, I'm not sure that I can say that about your bike.
