that is so cool .did you build that yourself? that is the way to go.

 

When moving from Florida to Nevada I needed to build a trailer for my Seadoo.
As mentioned above by someone, that garden one won't cut it.

I ended up getting one at Harbor Freight for about $100 or so on sale, then modified it for the seadoo.
This was back in '99', and I pulled it behind my Z-28 averaging about 85 -90 mph much of the way. Hubs never got hot and trailer still running today in Texas after I sold it to a friend of mine while living there.
That trailer has more miles on it than most, and is one tuff SOB.

Just checked the Harbor Frieght website, they still have a similar one for $139, maybe it will go on sale, not sure, but it could be a good easy start, frame, wheels, shocks, hitch, lights, can't beat it!

Good luck!!!!

 

See if this link works for the trailer.

And yeah, I know some of you are gonna say Harbor Freight has junk, but this thing diagonally crossed the country loaded at fairly high speeds, saw salt water, fresh water, hot climate, freezing climate.

After all that, pulled to San Antonio from Reno, again, hubs never heating up.
Harbor Freight might have some crap, but not this time.

thanks! i will check it out!

 

you will want to design it to attach to your struct mounts, not your swingarm. you will get to much of a rigid bounce to mount to your swingarm. when you mount it to your struct mounts it will be more of a relax bounce, so you wont lose your trailer when you hit a pot hole. check out some other hitches to, before you design yours, just to be safe. jackyl

I will post pics when I am done

 

thanks for the pointers guys! i really love the help i get here! jackyl i would have never thought of that!

 

Yeah, they are out there...you just see alot of the mount...baggers and other bikes the mount is hidden under the fender and bags....there are chrome ones that do not look too bad...and I guess you can remove them when not in use.

 

 

you can find a pre-made hitch on the web for a dyna, and i'd recommend you go with one of them. try http://www.hitchdoc.com/hitches.html



as for the trailer, you can certainly go with a HF and make your own. there are issues you need to be concerned about, such as wheel size, leaf springs, etc.

or there are custom trailers from Bushtec, Tailwind, etc that are made specifically for MCs. I have a Bushtec that I pull behind my UC that IMHO is clearly one of the best. However, it is spendy and you can build one from a HF trailer kit. Depending what you want and expect, you get what you pay for.
