Hi all:
Brought a very low mileage "Cycle Mate" trailer made for towing behind a
big bike. The owner used it once to go to Sturgis SD last year. Wasn't
big enough for him and his wife so he bought the Big trailer.

Mine weights 150 pounds and has a cargo capacity of 150 pounds. 300
hundred additional pounds shouldn't cause any trouble, I hope. He had it
behind a Honda Gull wing so I got the tow hitch included. Modified the
hitch and bolted in a 3/8" thick by 3.0" wide by 36" long piece of flat
stock steel. Installed four 1/2-13 bolts throughout the steel frame and
body. That should hold it. I've only seen one other roadster with a
trailer and that came off the this list from a show in the Northwest.
