Don't do it, you'll really sink in the mud. The depth stop factor! Buoyancy, Bouyancy my friend.

Now that's a bike mate! Welcome aboard.

Quite the obituary. I can only hope mine would be a tenth as good as his.

It is so easy to get your wires crossed. Down load a wiring schematic and you will find out how you let all the smoke out from your Ural.
