R3 + shortbed = what the hell are you doing?

[Zonechamp]

Have 12 foot ramps and a long bed, with a wheel choc mounted in the truck. Works really well as long as the ramps are dry. That high speed downhill reverse off a wet ramp gets a little bit exciting.

I leave the bike off and in 1st gear. I use the front brake and clutch at the same time with both feet on the ground when backing down. That way you can lock up both tires if need be. I find traction an issue loading, but never unloading.

And there I was giving you kudos for the long distance ride in my head all that time!

I live in WA State, land of the winter, rain & cold!
I towed to Moab, UT (1100mi x 2=2200mi) to find decent riding weather.
I then rode the rest (1600mi x 2=3400mi) on motor.
3400 miles is still a fair ride?

Sorry mate, but you wear all your buttons upfront on display flashing and like a kid in a lift I cannot resist pushing them all occasionally

So what did you do after lunch - Tish and pish!.

Stop, don't bring 'ish' into this AGAIN, I've had my button poke and apologised, its just that ruthless psychopath of yours taking over again!

Don't mean to steal the post but,,,
I trailer with a UHaul like you.
How much front fork compression?
Where do you anchor the rear straps?
How much compression on the rear straps?
I ask because I saw mine fall off the straps onto it's side.
