U-Haul will attach a hitch to any car... just gotta get the right redneck with enough wild turkey sometimes

Can you rent a trailor from them too, or do you have to buy your own?

 

U-haul has motorcycle specific trailers for $15/day but you have to return them to the site you rent them from, you cant just drop the trailer off at any u-haul center. With regular U-haul trailers you can drop them off anywhere but they will probably be too heavy for your car to tow. Your towing capacity is probably only around 1000 lbs and lightest trailer they have is 710 lbs. Youd be pushin it with one of those.

 

Yeah that might be pushin it. But how much does a bike specific trailor cost if I was to own one? I plan on takin a one-way trip when I move to FL. If it costs too much, I might end up gettin a big U-Haul truck, strappin the dike inside with all my stuff, and pullin my car behind it.

 

I bolted a trailer hitch on to the bumper of my old Volvo a few years ago, and it worked great.




You could just buy your own trailer for $200. Weighs about 220 pounds, and is rated to 990 pounds.

That just might work. But, is the trailor making your car dip like that or did you just have bad shocks?

 

Nicely done. For those interested I am going to building a trailer next week probably so I will take pictures and put up some info. It will look pretty much like the one Jay used but I will also be adding in a rail kit for the bike.

 

definitly looking forward to the pix and the information on where ya got the material, I would rather build one than buy a used one that someone didnt take good care of

 

There's alot of weight on the trailer, and some in the back of the wagon. The car didn't normally ride that low.

 

TSC (Tractor Supply Co.) has a 4'X6' Carry-On trailer with a tilt bed for around $350.

Just an idea. Gander Mtn and Rural King both have them too, maybe Lowe's too, not sure on them though.

 

I have a tow turck and toe nikes
I dont like the set up on the handle bars. You can scratch the dampeners. Customers dont like ANY scratches to anything
