When bags on a bagger are not enough

When bags on a bagger are not enough

Decided to get a trailer to tow behind the RoadKing (hence the mods to torque the motor up)
It was pink lol, but the owner's husband is a spray painter and he color matched it to the Gold on my bike.

A Classic Industries trailer, they're well built those. A few tips from another trailer owner if you don't mind...
Get used to doing lot of u-turns, backing trailers when they're hooked up to a bike doesn't work too well.

Don't forget the extra weight and length when you're overtaking, a loaded trailer will reduce your acceleration, increase your wind drag and you have to allow extra time and space to overtake.

If you haven't got brakes (and most Classics don't) the try and do your braking in a straight line (so before the corner) because strong braking mid-corner with a loaded trailer can make the bike do things you don't expect.

Oh... and don't lane split :)

F"Ken Hell. Thinking if correct weight, there should be a trailer (Or anchor) site on this here forum.
Makes so much sense in our brown land to cart stuff, and easy sleeping... Never thought would say, but Lofty very glad you brought it up, also glad you changed from "Pink".....!

Mine is a work in progress, in the painters now to match the bike after having to fill all the holes the previous owner put in it for his DOG. Will be Ember Red Sunglo by the end of the week.
