I think I talked to you at one time a while back when my WM and I were in there looking at ceiling fans. She got the "Rocket Ship" fan for my son's room. Matter of fact, I got the hardware to mount those cans on my bike from y'all.

OOORAH Gunny!

Hey man like your ride! Only thing I see missing is the scabbard.:

Yeah, the problem is the "new" bikes ('07 and later) don't come with the machine gun pintle adapter on the sidecar like the '06 and prior did.

I talked to the local cops and they said there was no specific rule against running a replica machine gun on the hack in public, so I may look into getting one of those adapters sometime down the road :D

Wow, the Ural Gear Up has been my dream bike since I was 16. I hope to get mine this summer. Is it as fun as it looks?

I'm so envious right now!

The black bike up there with the machine gun (RPD I believe) isn't mine, but the gun does work. I've seen a video of him shooting it from the sidecar, pretty cool stuff.
