Default U-Haul Motorcycle Trailer

Has anyone ever hauled a RK or Ultra on one of these?

Avoid u-haul like the plague. Their poor equipment maintenance is legendary.

I used one of those to tow my Heritage from Denver to Chicago and back a few years ago, it worked like a charm. Do not leave the cover on the bike though!!!!

The wind slapping the cover on the paint scratches the **** out of it.

I just looked at the link that I posted again. It says that the maximum recommended towing speed is 45 mph for this trailer. What a crock of BS. I guess they're just covering their butt.

I'm surprised the max speed is 45mph with the cargo weight and those golf cart tires they have on their.
