After getting the Ural, prep work began to get it ready for the trip. Actually the first 2 weeks consisted of Brett and I constantly riding it trying to get used to a side car rig (when it was not broken). Not much of what you know about motorcycle riding applies here. Weird geometry, not putting your feet down, strange sensations of pushing and pulling. Within 20 miles of the dealership we broke an exhaust rocker arm, POP! And there we sat for almost 2 hours waiting for a ride back to the dealership. A 15 minute repair and we were back on the road.
The second week of ownership resulted in a final drive failure. The URAL folks were quick to resolve the issue and we were back on the road yet again!
Since we picked up the bike and worked the bugs out we have focused on breaking it in and putting it through it's paces to get an idea of what we are in for.
