    I hope you make sure the van can pull a larger trailer up a mountain pass when fully loaded, before you make the purchase. But then again, if it didn't it would force you into a new home like you've talked about.

    Only thing I would tell you is think about how easy the trailer you have is to tow size wise and with single axle, I know you need more space, maybe consider adding a side door to the one you have and see if that helps it would save money and a lot of work, otherwise I would consider a 6X10 all aluminum to save weight

    • @RollingEarthShip
      @RollingEarthShip  Год назад

      A 6x10 won’t be much heavier than what I got now, and it will be single axle. 👍🏻🏍️

    You can always get a Honda C125 Trial...for off road...Or a Honda Monkey...Also parking the bike backwards and invest in a winch system instead of a new trailer.. Bigger trailer more pulling power needed and less MPG

    Wow, that's a tight fit for the bike in that trailer! Lol. Your hair is beautiful, as usual. Maybe not as beautiful as mine, but really nice nonetheless. 😉😁 8:37 mark: Yeah, a bigger trailer sounds reasonable.
    Can you not find heavy-equipment-operator jobs out west, or do you want to go east for the summer anyways?
    17:40 mark: I find it best to sit with the questions before making decisions. I will literally think about the choice I'm contemplating (in your case: buy a new bike and leave my old one behind? OR "this is the best bike for me" type of statement). If I ask myself if I should buy the new one and leave the old one, and I get a bad feeling in my gut then I know that it might not be the right decision. I let my gut rule most of the time because it's interconnected with our intuition.

    • @RollingEarthShip

    Why have bigger trailer? Bigger it is more burdensome it is to haul it around. Best to stick with what you have if you can get by. Also, an option in the future is getting a dual sport bike (e.g.mYamaha Ténéré) with panniers. They are lighter, can handle off road great, cheaper to buy and maintain as well as cheaper to insure. Best wishes.
