2011 R1200GSA with Ural tub build - The (sorta) end

Posted by: @nedDid you go with regular axle grease or something more exotic?
Nawp. I just used regular old Dawn dish soap. Figured when it dried out, I could just run through a puddle. Grease... Hmpf.

Jeez, you've got good eyes to spot that Gremlin bell.
I do have a kind of sorta good excuse. My buddy Doug gave it to me for the old rig and since he spent so much time helping me build this thing I felt like I had to (and he was standing right there looking at it).
I did say that it didn't save me from the last crash but his response won the argument. "You're not dead, are you?"
On it went.

A better end to the thread...Chloe's first ride.
The rig handles so much better with an active passenger like Chloe than bags of concrete.

Looks like a beautiful day to enjoy the first ride too. 🤩
Hold my keyboard and watch this! 🙃
