    Saw the plastic trailer at a customers house sitting up on blocks and thought it was pretty funny looking-had to have it!  Did some horse trading with him on what he owed me (I really was only interested in the bike rack stuff, but I got the whole setup for less than the racks would have cost me!).

    Company that made it only did so for a little while (Trailex) and then abandoned the idea.  This one was made for the Cleveland Browns they told me, hence the funny colors.

    Didn't think it would work but might get your mind working!

    I bought a cheapie trailer at Home Depot many years ago for around $300 IIRC (pic).  I have packed a whole lot of bikes and multiple fuel cans, coolers., tool boxes, etc. on it over the years, and it is amazing what having a trailer around allows you to do in addition to just carrying bikes (and somebody always wants to borrow it-half the time I can't remember who has it!).  You may check HD and see if they still have some inexpensive trailers that might work for you (my trailer was less than my Joe Hauler).

    I think Carson trailer is out that way also and they make a nice trailer in my opinion.  You may look them up and see what they have to offer (I have one for my SXS and it has built in ratchet ties, so they can do some pretty cool stuff-their pricing will be a bit more than HD but they are heavier duty also).

    Good luck!

    The good thing about the heavier bikes (like my XR) is that they plow right through stuff (still learning how to understand the lightweight KTM as all I ever rode before that was XR's).  The bad part is that they do take a bit of man handling sometimes!

    Good for you for hanging with it and getting turned around; a rum drink (I think Jimmy Buffett calls them "boat drinks") sounds like a nice reward!

    He's an imposter!!!!

    FYI-six trips back and forth from CA to UT with a 30' cargo trailer hauling all my junk over the course of May to get moved here.  My Kug sticker protected me every mile (had a blow out on the SXS trailer but that was the only issue)!  Proudly carrying on the tradition in Hurricane, Utah!
