trailers

[978chris]

so something enclosed, 2 bikes worth.. not huge.. used.. what am i looking at $$ wise?

[Doc]

Nice one... $3k.

Mine.... $1k

[978chris]

so i can get something useable for $1k? not leaking and rusted and shit?

what does yours look like?

[nerijusj]

I want 1 too. But I'm looking for open trailer to haul 2 bikes. 1K for enclosed is not a bad price IMO, if it's in good condition.

Best time to buy is now racing season is over and peeps are looking to sell/upgrade. Ned I'll sell you mine for $10k, like new.

Open trailer?

check out Harbor Freight Tools - Quality Tools at the Lowest Prices

It's a bit of a squeeze to get two bikes in there but it's more than doable if ya set it up right.

Open trailer?

go to Harbor Freight Tools - Quality Tools at the Lowest Prices and check out the 4x8 1200lb heavy duty folding trailer. Under 300 bucks shipped... a day of assembly & 100 bucks for lumber & hardware & you're golden.

Yeh, I was looking at harbor freight stuff. I always wondered though if I could fit 2 sportbikes on 4x8.

[OreoGaborio]

yup, ya can. Done it on a few occations.

Useable and not rusted to shit. Check. I tow it from Burlington to NHIS and it hasn't given me problems. Slept in it last race weekend and no leaks.

Great little trailer, Carries 2 race bikes my pit bike, all my tools, spare tires and a bunch of other stuff.

I think I MAY upgrade. How soon do you need it? i would need to find an upgrade to swap it with as I use it for storage in the winter.

Here is my wife standing next to it last weekend.



You would most likely want to remove all the decals ( I didn't put them ALL on there.)

[Doc]

Or...Free enclosed trailer (needs work) PPU

Have you searched Craigslist....?

[978chris]

oh i dunno how soon, by next season sometime...

does look more than adequate for my needs... not bad. i just spent more than i should've fixing my "accident" though.. wife isn't talking to me so i think it'll be a couple months at least before any serious purchasing.

[Doc]

Good... That gives me a couple months to find a newer/bigger one.

I'll post up if it goes up for sale.

[smf]

get something nice. like what hobbs brings, but with space for the bikes too and fold down rear door for easy loading/unloading

[Doc]

I'll try...

[Crash Dummy Denno]

get a flatbed 4x8 trailor used - i got mine for 300 bucks and it fits 2 bikes no problem after i fabricated a wing on each side for tie downs! let me know if you need any advice or pics of mine if you go the easy/ affordable route

[nerijusj]

You have to register a trailer right, get a plate and everything? I'm guessing insurance also, excise tax? So how much does everything cost?

[Doc]

No insurance but you do have to register and plate it.

[LuvDog]

It doesn't cost extra, but I had the trailer added to my car insurance.

I can't remember if there's an excise or not.

[kermita]

I can't remember if there's an excise or not.

In MA there is excise tax on trailers.

[bump909]

Doc sure does like his stickers.

[Kham]

i'll get one of those open next summer.

+1 on the 4x8- I got one from Cap World in Marlborough RT 9 over the summer-They had a couple of "Scratch and Dents" available. I paid $500 for it. It has been worth every penny. Although an enclosed trailer would be sweet!
