I'm looking for a trailer, to pull behind my Honda Accord (I already have the hitch installed)
The wheelbase of our bike is 71.2 inches, so I'd need one to fit it.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

I use a 6x12 from Tractor supply.... They have them on sale all the time for around $800. Three ratchet straps and your all set... Bike fits perfectly.
My Fury would not fit on their 5x8' trailer...when I put the tailgate up it was hitting the tail light...

I wouldn't comfortably trust my Fury on one of those $300 trailers with the what...12 inch tires... I had one for my riding mower a couple years back and the trailer cost me a riding mower.

Alan, I'm not sure where I saw it but somebody around Florida builds one very close to this... It didn't tilt like in the video, it had a removable ramp on the back but other then that it was identical. Might be able to find it and not need to buy from the U.K. LoL

2K for something you might use a couple, three times a year.
Wowzer's
I thought $800 for a Tractor Supply trailer was too much!

Be careful... I'd be worried about somebody rear-ending the bike with no lights working on it especially at night. Also check with the states you'll be traveling through to make sure it's legal. I don't believe those are legal in some states.
A friend of mine used one of those a while back and he got a ticket in (I believe) GA for towing the bike with it, it might have been another south-eastern state, I'm not positive. And then to make it worse, When he got home he had a whining noise coming out of his transmission that he didn't have before towing it 1000 miles. He had to take it to the stealer get it get it fixed but I can't remember what was wrong with it... All I remember was him really complaining saying that with the cost of the tranny repair he could of bought a full trailer and not had any problems.
Just food for thought.
