It's been here a few hours and the grin hasn't faded! The riding experience is very different than on two wheels, but it's a fine rig and a lot of fun! Looking forward to meeting some of you at the rally next month

Gramps,

It's a Hannigan Dual Sport on a 2007 R1200GS. It has an anti-sway bar and ECC. I was torn between this tub and a CSM. Claude was a tremendous help, but the bottom line was that Hannigan had a rig available and Claude didn't...and I know from prior offenses that my wife's approval is transient. If I didn't move fast she would have rescinded the funding!

I have an 07 R1200GS already, so was familiar with the bike. It seemed like a good way to shorten the learning curve so I could actually show up at the rally this year with a few weeks of riding experience under my armor.

Pete

I have almost the same sidecar.I got mine in February this year. Mine is the conte model. I wish I had your tow rig! You should get years of enjoyment as the rig looks like a match made in heaven!
