Road Trip & 500km Service

Filed Under (Trip Journals, Ural Repair and Maintenance) by Anthony StClair on 10-04-2008

New Arctic Gear-Up owner Andy Grow and I are heading to Salem today. The ride up from Eugene should take a couple of hours, and we’re planning to spend much of the day at Raceway, staying out of the mechanic’s way while observing them service our Urals. It’s going to be an interesting trip. Andy’s already logged quite a few miles in Oregon, but this will be my first big road trip. Can’t wait to let you know how it all goes!

    Hey…I hope you guys have/had a great time. I can’t wait for my service time. I’ve got an oil leak and my turn signals don’t work now. Little things like that can drive me crazy sometimes. Can’t wait to hear about the roadtrip.

    Dena - we did indeed, and I’m gradually working on some posts around that trip.

    That’s crazy that you’re having those problems, but your dealer should get you all sorted out. The IMZ boards also have some threads about turn signals - try searching the boards for “turn signals” or “flasher”

    Anthony, had a great time with you and Jodie, and on the ride to Salem. Can’t wait to do it again!

    Same here man. Just read your whole trip story on Soviet Steeds - great stuff, and good pix! You really broke that bike in well - and it was great to see your son’s reaction. I’m just waiting for the kid to start sleeping in the hack so he can “sneak” his way into rides :-)
