Ok, picked up the trailer today..
Wells Cargo TC Trecker 5 x 8 V-nose
towed like a dream empty, hardly knew it was there.. Real test is to load it and see.
I did the math on the GVWR (LB.) 2750 avg payload capacity is 1915. I will be around 1175..
Has the rear landing legs, nice setup..

I like it. Other than the obvious, why did you get a trailer? Are you planning on doing a lot of traveling?

Yes, that's the plan..
This summer I will be a road dog..
Load up the bike, unload at destination and see the sites via 2 wheels.
As everyone knows, the Fury is not that suited for long distance travel. Besides, I don't want to be beat to death just getting there and not being able to enjoy the scenery once there.

I want a trailer too, but my truck would have difficulties pulling it because of the gearing, If i get on a wet road with the added weight i would be stuck smoking tires like crazy, and i dont feel like unloading my bike from the bed anywhere other than my culvert ditch. guess its time for a new truck soon
