And do I ever lose my new member status? Lol.

How much time away would you allow for that Russ?

I have many 1000s on my Enduristan gear and zero issues. That said, no zippers on any of it. All roll tops, Blizzard XL bags, etc.

Same issue so I lean the bike back slightly and also use a hitch stabilizer. Have thought of making a little foam sock but once I was aware of the issue it has not been a problem. Cheap PA rack as well.

Can we get a peak at the road book? I am all set up with Rally Navigator with no place to go.

I'm in. Scott Jutson on WR250

To be clear this is the intersection I am referring to

The part you have circled in red is easy two track and relatively flat. The 20% grade would be the three ascents after Mud Lakes to the intersection with the circled trail. So we came up from Mud Lakes, turned right and headed over to Yalakom. I was on a VStrom 650 with a burned out clutch so...

Yalakom is a nice by pass for MudLake. Nicer in all respects. The water crossings are the least of your issues on a bigger bike.

I did buy a locking pin fwiw

Ditto on the Princess Auto hitch rack. Paid $99 on sale. Just works. Using with a WR250R at 300+ pounds.

weather is looking better.

One thing to note on the Day 2 route - the KVR has an unpassable washout around Chain Lake/Shinish Creek Rd. In theory you get off on Chain Lake Rd and then rejoin somewhere around Jelicoe. Guessing it will be obvious.
