    Finished the trailer today

    Here is the best use of the trailer so far..... My previous oversized trunk is now on the tongue along with the caribou plate, perfect setup for storage and tongue weight. I just bought the smoker on Monday and just had to do this..... ::012::

    Finished the trailer today

    Z06 has the bushtec set up, where I have the standard ball... Bottom 2 pics are both pegs from underneath. I have a 1,000lb spring on the stock shock which ended up working well for trailer duty, I use about 40lbs of tongue weight and the trailer pulls without issue at sustained highway...

    Finished the trailer today

    Hey Tom, my hitch was built/installed by Z06, he's local to me in FL. As far as durability of the hitch, I've put over 1000 miles on the trailer so far and it's been through deals gap/US129, moonshiner 28, rattlesnake 209 and through the Pisgah forest on 215 and 276. Very happy with the hitch...

    Saddleman Adventure TRACK Motorcycle Seat / SOLD! SOLD! SOLD!

    Saddleman Adventure TRACK Motorcycle Seat / SOLD! SOLD! SOLD!

    Re: Saddleman Adventure TRACK Motorcycle Seat / FS Better than stock for me. I basically doubled my riding range with the track seat....from 4 hours to 10 hours of saddle time before I feel the need for a "butt break." I usually wear mesh riding pants in the summer and can tell you by simply...

    Need opinions on seats

    Hello, I have the adventure track seat and it's far better than the stock for me....am in the super heavyweight category though.. 350lbs. The Mrs. Is 120lbs and found the rear seat quite firm initially, now it's broken in and more comfortable.

    Rear Spring Pre-load and loaded bike

    Rear Spring Pre-load and loaded bike

    Spacer by Jaxon $65 Eibach 1000lb spring $65 If you're in the super heavy weight category, this setup works and is relatively inexpensive. So far I'm very happy as I went from max preload on a normal basis to 5 clicks with the new spring. I don't get flashed at night by oncoming traffic like...

    Where do you buy your tires?

    I have the protectors....a couple of 1200 mile trips later and those protectors are worth it for me...no way debris can get in unless you sink the front end. :D.
