Anyone who flames you for trailering is a jackass. And why is it a no no? What you do is nobody else's damn business.

I have the Kendon Single Ride Up. https://www.kendonusa.com/product/si...cycle-trailer/
It is an awesome, well-built trailer. When not in use, it sits upright against a wall in my garage directly behind my Ultra. It truly takes minimal storage space. As you already mentioned, they don't give away their trailers, but I suppose you indeed "get what you pay for."

Since you both ride, perhaps something you want to consider for a bit more money is the double trailer. I investigated this option and consistently was advised that the double could be used with a single bike because of the design of the suspension. Frankly, if I went that route, I would get the optional center rail to balance the single-bike load on the trailer. Good luck in your search.

Hate? For trailers? Or for you wanting a trailer? If you need one or want one, go for it. It's not going to effect me.

I have a friend who has the Kendon Dual Ride Up SRL Folding Trailer that lists new for $3699. He has mentioned selling it since he is converting his bike into a trike. It is several years old but in like new condition. Used very little. I cannot say for sure but he would probably take $1700 or so. He is in Georgia & looks like you are in Tennessee so delivery/pick up should not be too difficult. PM me if interested & I will put you in touch.

I have a Single bike trailer made by Phoenix Motorcycle Trailers that i am going to sell. It is lightweight for moving around in your garage or yard for that matter. it will fold up to stand in your garage. I paid $1600.00 for it and i have added a rock shield for the front and added two ramps that are handy when you are riding the bike up the ramp. It has a locking chock Condor style and may even be a Condor.Trailer looks really nice with the chrome bullet hole style rims with 175/80 R 13 tires and spare too all have great tread. The floor, rock shield and ramps are of diamond plate aluminum. I have trailered my Street Glide, Deuce, Deluxe and Sportster . It has hauled a Fatboy for a friend. I have all the paperwork from my purchase. It is a little over six years old and i will sell it for $900.00 I can send you pics to your cell but i don't know how to post them here. Send me a Private message with your # if interested. Thanks. This is my trailer here on this youtube video. This one is minus the rock shield and the ramps for your feet.

I've never trailered but am thinking about it to facilitate a ride in the Rockies without 3 day's tedium of riding the "flat states"--Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri and Kansas. (Sorry midwesterners, but I was born in Nebraska and have done many uninteresting trips across the midwest. It's not prejudice, it's experience.)

Has anyone ever used one of these: http://theusatrailerstore.com/ace-si...cycle-trailer/

There is no rule against trailering a motorcycle, ever. I'm happy for you that you have a gf who rides and gives so much of her time for charitable causes. Anyone who gives you or her so much as a bad look or a sneer are simply telling you how judgmental they are. That's their problem to deal with.

I have this one, that is a lot like the Kendon. Folds up and is sturdy with torsion axles. The company is out of Bradenton, Fl. but I don't think they make it anymore. I paid $800.00 off Craigslist. Pulls well with a big bike on it.
