Harbor Freight trailer frame: $170
Cartop carrier from yard sale: $10
Diamond plate bed from scrap pile
Rattlecan paint in black & orange: $20
It ain't pretty but it's fine for a couple of trips each year.

It's an Aluma MCT Wayne. Extremly well built. No reason it should not last for the rest of my life and then some. Just put Swivel Safe II swivel hitch on it.

Needing a swivel hitch is a matter of personal likes dislikes etc. I just installed a Swivel Safe II on my Aluma. In my opinion all trailers intended to be pulled by a motorcycle should have one. There are others that will tell you the exact opposite though.
What don't I like about the Aluma? I wish it had more lights on the rear. It is deep, but not something that I will be taking stuff out of allot either. I do like the fact that it's no wider than the bike is. I picked this trailer because of how well built it is. Thing should last for a very long time.

Philt,
Thats slicker then all get out. You can camp 3 nites for the cost of nite ina hotel. And if I remember, many campgrounds have excellent shower facilities too. When my son was playing hocley we would camp in Toronto for 15$ a nite with a water and electrical receptacle site even though alls we had was a big tent. Those 2 ameneties make a huge difference.

You got that right badinfluence. We are going to be doing more touring since I'm retired and the wife is a school teacher. So I figure I'll save some money by not doing hotels! Might offset the cost of gas now!
Here is the whole rig.
