Check this rig out! I saw this in a gas station in Plano, TX. I hung around for about 15 minutes, and never saw the rider, or anyone that looked like a rider. So, I took a couple of pictures and here they are...

Now I'll know)) 'Cause I do not understand the differences between K and M. The "direct" handles are aught to my eye here. So I thought, that it was likely something modern.

Not often you see a HD adventure rig. Guessing this owner sees some interesting places. We should get our area rigs together sometime this year. I am planning on going to the USCA rally in Mountain View. Any others on this thread going?

With the wind that's pushing I bet it spends lots of time at gas stations.

Haters gotta hate!

But really--when's the last time you saw an expedition-style rooftop tent mounted on a sidecar? Then he's got 4, count 'em, 4 rear view mirrors. Two Marine Corps stickers. A fire extinguisher. A flagpole. A laundry bag. I think that round thing with the spiral paint is an aux fuel tank. And who knows what he's carrying in those boxes.

Am I a sexist for assuming the driver is a HE?

Bar None · Jan 21, 2013

I ain't hating, he might live on his hack. I just noticed the slow moving farm vehicle triangle on the back. Gotta get one of those for my Ural.
Maybe swipe it off my tractor since I never take it on the road.

bk brkr baker · Jan 21, 2013

I have no room for hate either.
But, just imagine a little gust , say 20-25 mph , the effects on an assemetric vehicle that's as tall as it is wide. Then double that, then increase that by 50%.
Thrill a minute and the some.
Then wind gets up pretty good in Tacoma, doesn't it? Texas too.

Time for a trailer, keep your load low and horizontal.
