They do look very handy indeedy but i just cant bring myself to trusting one carrying my pride and joy on the back of my new van, im just too much of a fairy even tho it would save me a lorra bucks. (compared to buying meself a trailer) I finks me bike is 119KGs dry, so add fuel/coolant its gotta be close to the max limit of 150KGs

Convince me slowplay!

I cant even find myself a nice enuff looking trailer facrissakes!!! Everytime i see one i think to meself 'cheap sh1te' :rolleyes:

As for the OP, it'll fit easy. But whats a trailer test?

Ok, Ive had mine on there in excess of ***mph with both the 200 and 520.

I've used it as well as towing a trailor with 2 other bikes on too with no problems.

I've never damaged the bike or car and have even towed other cars out muddy fields with the freelander while the bikes been on the back :)

And if you want a nice trailer...


theres a folding one on autowbars site ;)

I passed my driving test after 1997 so have to do an extra trailer test before I can use one

They do have some nice trailers on there that would take the trumpet if i needed, and for a fair price too. Shame the company is the other side of the country tho :rolleyes:

Not sure where u are but there is a really good tow bar place in Birmingham on kingstanding road. Don't ask me what it's called now but I could walk down the road and find the number in the morning.
