Like your trailer a lot and it fits my style of camping. Don't see many of them, for sale or on the road.Checkswrecks said:Their fitment list does not mention the Tenere or the FJR, even though each has the hollow axle they call for. Plus, the bikes listed are smaller, so I'm wondering if our swing arms are too wide.
I tow quite a bit with a standard hitch and just finished a 1600 mile week. It puts up to 40 pounds (10% of trailer weight) on the back of the bike, but it's down low at the height of the ball. Usually don't know the trailer is back there and it's easier than a large passenger on the seat.
Not sure I'd want to hit rough roads with any extra tongue weight on the axle.
And none on eBay or Craig's list.tomatocity said:Like your trailer a lot and it fits my style of camping. Don't see many of them, for sale or on the road.
I think the last time I saw your trailer it was beside the Tenere in the opposite direction. I give you a lot of credit for staying with this trailer. Many of us would have stored or sold it. Had a friend that traveled with one one of these and he loved it. He drug it across the USA a half dozen times behind a Suzuki CT90. He said he was set up in ten minutes from the time he stopped.

He'll definitely get back on the horse that threw him. ::013::
I know him as kind of a Jekyll-Hyde fella.
Over here on YST, he's a true gent.
But when we're all outta view........well, lets just say I've seen his Jekyll aftermath. He's even been banned! ::012::
Hey ChecksWrecks, where did you get your trailer hitch for the Ténéré?Checkswrecks said:LOL - You tease.
This time the ban was a mistake. A total mistake. That's Baldy's story and I'm sticking to it.

Nice! Thank you!!! (that link went to some PHOTOBUCKET thread, and I couldn't find anything about the trailer hitches, but I will use the search function, which I should have done in the first place.)Checkswrecks said:Member Z06 has been making them. Something REALLY important is to let him know the height for the ball. While his original hitches were quite high, the height should be close to the height of your rear axle for a number of reasons.
Use the search box with the words: trailer hitch
