    Kraken sent me. That is one awesome trailer you had. I like your new one as well. We have a enclosed cargo trailer. I will be watching your video on how trailer a bike. Thanks. 👍

    I HAVE A WELKER 3 PLACE TRAILER MADE IN 1986. IT LOOKS AND OPERATES JUST LIKE YOURS. IT IS ONE OF THE BEST MOTORCYCLE TRAILERS I HAVE EVER OWNED.

    I live in Michigan, not far from the Klinger "factory" and a few years ago purchased a new trailer from them. Adrian is spot on with his comments. It's an incredible trailer. And no, I have no connection with Klinger.

    Looks ideal for the bigger, heavier bikes... I'll take a little bump up over a ramp any day ! Great to see you bro !

    • @YouMotorcycle
      @YouMotorcycle  3 года назад

      Heck yes. One of the Harley's on it, a black V-Rod is mine, and you don't feel the 600+ lbs much when the motor is doing the pushing, but as soon as she starts over heating and you gotta leave her on the side of the road and come back later and start pushing, you feel all that weight. Knowing I could easily just come pick it up later myself saved me from risking damaging the motor by trying to make it all the way home on my bike.

      It's great, especially with having an old dog, she's 12, I don't know how much time she has left, so being able to bring her along for adventures, set up camp or unpack at a cottage, drop off the doggo, and still be able to go out riding around back roads for a few hours before dinner... it's great :)

    I have a 5x8 utility trailer that I'm going to sell. I absolutely dislike it as the tailgait/ramp on the back acts like a sail going down the road. I'll be looking at your trailer series for a good solution. Another well done video. Eric

    • @YouMotorcycle
      @YouMotorcycle  3 года назад +1

      Thanks brother. The guys who make it are out of Paw Paw, Michigan. Klinger Trailers is the name. My 3x8 was great. I think Spotsy's a little more roomy than Toronto is, so you could probably go with the 4x8 model to give yourself a little more space. If I bought a new one today I would think about getting it rubber coated like people do with their truck beds, but that's because we use salt on the roads over here.

      Nice! Honestly the electric which was the weakest link in the whole thing and frequently had issues so a manual winch is probably a good idea especially if you'll be getting a lot of use out of it. Thanks for checking out my channel!

      It was money well spent. After everything, really only cost me a couple hundred bucks. Kind of pays for itself if it saves you needing to have to have a motorcycle towed to the shop. When I had my V-Rod start overheating (thermostat failed) I didn't sweat leaving it on the side of the road instead of trying to force it to run hot and risking damaging my motor because I knew once I got home I could just get the trailer out and easily pick my baby up again. Loading and unloading is an easy one man job.

    • @YouMotorcycle
      @YouMotorcycle  3 года назад

      Pricey but if you can find them used like I did, worth every penny. You don't really lose money on them either. I paid $1,100 ish, sold for $1,200 ish, and spent a couple hundred on a new jack, winch, battery, and strap. So maybe at the end of several years and many trips it only worked out to a couple hundred bucks.

      @@sdefiel3719 I don't know if you're going to find something wide enough to fit them side by side because the tri-glide's width is almost enough to occupy a trailer's width on it's own. You're probably going to have to get something long enough that you can fit both. Maybe one of the bikes you can tow perpendicular to the tri glide to save some space.
