I would get a Baxley Trailerhttp://www.baxleycompanies.com/

There's more wrong in that picture than I could begin to explain to most in here , " Biker " sure has changed since I got into it .


Brenn your right there's times a trailer is the only reasonable way to make it for what ever reason . Back in the day a trailer was a plank ramp into the back of the pickup with the tent & gear not these mobile homes out now .

Like I said in a follow up post "degenerative spine deasease" If that makes me a puss then so be it. 2 wars, 25 years of service and now I want to take it easy a little. Yea, I am a *****.

Thanks to all the ADULTS that answered the question without judging.

+1 on the Kendon trailers. My buddy has a dual rail Kendon trailer and he has no complaints. He has a 5th wheel camper, and he put a hitch on the back of it so he can pull the kendon trailer behind the camper with his bike on it.

Why would I trailer my bike when its so much fun to ride cross country. I have ridden from dark to dark to get to my destination. Did this many times just to spend two days in a great riding area then head home after midnight to get home that evening. Yes I have enjoyed the ride and it makes a great part of the trip. Then I had back surgery several years ago. So now I have to trailer for the day to get to my favorite dest. Or maybe I should sell my bike and quit riding because someone who puts 1000 mile a year has an opinion of why I shouldn't trailer my bike. Everyone does it for a different reason and its there own reason not yours. I don't judge you beacuse you are scared to ride in the thunder storm, or because you have never been farther than 100 miles from your house. But we are all bikers and individuals who will do individual things to keep us individually happy. We are all here because we enjoy one thing, we all like riding.

We have 2 trailers. My husband has a really hard time getting time off from work so ridding 2-3 days to get to our event would just eat up his time off, plus we still have 2 kids at home and they go with us about 80% of the time & a hyper active boxer.

Both of our trailers are bumper pull so I can pull with my large SUV or hubbys truck.
The first trailer is just a dove tail car hauler that he put removable wheel holder things on. We have used it many time no problems and when we get home he takes off the wheel thing and has his car hauler back to drag home more projects.

The other trailer we just got about 2 months ago and we will take it on our first outing this weekend.

It is a toy hauler by Thor it is the Harley edition picked it up used.
It has a very nice bath room small kitchen area (with teenaged boys you have to cook) and will sleep max of 6,
2 queen beds (that go up in the roof) and 2 twins that fold up against the wall.

It is a tight fit but it will haul 3 bikes, we fit 1 Ultral limited, 1 Police model, and my Fatboy.

We are taking it out this weekend and I hope it is as much fun as I think it will be.

I guess you can tell from this never ending post that I am excited to give it a try.

Kendon has a nice two bike trailer that is well built and reasonable price that folds up. It can store at the back of the garage with little space.
