2-up riding

Post by Chuck Farrah » Thu Jun 09, 2005 12:16 pm

Hello, Im new to Dual Sport riding and my wife and I are going to take a nice trip down to the Copper Canyon in Sept. My question is, What is the Happy Trails Relocator plate ?, and will it help with riding 2-up ? Thanks. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

2-up riding

Chuck: I assume you are riding a KLR. If so, you will enjoy it very much riding single. Two up is not much fun, but the plate you are referring to will help considerably if you must ride two up. It a is a metal plate that is used to move your top box more to the rear of your bike to accomodate a passenger. Many KLR riders have made the trip to Copper Canyon. I've been down that way twice on a KLR. The terrain is very unforgiving in many places. Riding two up on a KLR would be very difficult unless they have improved the mountainous dirt roads recently. If you hit some bad weather (rain or snow) you will probably not make it two up. JMHO I wrote a trip report on my first adventure down there. It is posted on the IBMWR web site and on the BMW Riders of Mississippi web site. You can access the BMW Riders of Mississippi web site at: http://www.bmwridersofmississippi.org Look on the "Adventures" page for "A Mexican Adventure" It is a long article, but you will find it very informative with my brand of sick humor.
