If you have something broken in the drive line between the gearbox and the rear wheel, it may be binding enough to keep the rear wheel from moving freely in neutral.

Love your story

It makes me realize how much more my TA is capable of.

I'm definitely jealous.

Great Photos

I loved seeing your photos.
I hope to ride to Deadhorse next summer, all the way from Anchorage.

Thanks for the RR.

old RS

I'm looking at an old 85 K100RS.
It's got low mileage, and has been sitting in my friends garage for years.

What do I want to look for in regard to maintenance issues?

Thanks,

Jim

trailering to alaska

In spite of what people may think, the Alaska Hwy is suited for a K1200LT, or a BMW sports sedan.

Arthur M. Anderson

That is great.

My uncle worked on the Anderson, and was on it the night the Fitzgerald sank.

He quit after that, and took a job in Duluth.

I remember seeing that boat as a kid.

Thanks.
