Quick question....anyone have any experience with the inflatable post op collars for a big dog ? Dread having to use the hard plastic cone ones. They're for the dog not for me.

I have used an inflatable collar for my large Golden Roy. They are so much better than the plastic cones! The one I've used is the "ZenCollar". Your dog will be more comfortable and can see. You can inflate them to varying degrees, his didn't need to be at max air pressure. Good luck. KW

The kick starter and reverse gear have sure come in handy on the Ural, though. If Urals had north of 50hp and geared for 75 mph cruising, they'd be a real contender in the sidecar business, but 35hp and realistic top cruise of around 55, that really limits them. Just keep saying, "Rabbit hole!", "Rabbit hole!".
Mike, I always enjoyed riding back country roads at 35 -40 mph. I was always by myself, no one wanted to ride that slow. Took the '12 one time on the highway shortly after I got it. At 60 mph I was scared shitless! I'm thinking it'll be fun to take up to lake, room for Zeke and carry bunch of stuff with me.If I go that route, I'll be probably be looking at a new one or one a year old. Now have a dealer 40 miles away. They've made a bunch of improvements in the past few years.

About ready to leave the circus for today. Non-stop fun.....
Then over to Dad's who is still taking therapy at the hospital. Tuesday we have an in-home evaluation to determine with medical staff if he can return home.
It is.....what it is.
