Buckster Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Heading to a Harley rally down in Derbyshire on the 8th, I have to get a few bits done on the trailer and get it ready to go.

XTreme Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 This whole concept of "one make only" Rallies and Meet Ups doesn't sit well with me! Seems to be mainly Harley and BMW that do this sort of elitist shit. I suppose it's because the Beemer guys will have more company on the recovery truck, while the Harley guys can dress up like Sonny Barger and then sodomise each other senseless. I think I'll stick with my little Honda and not break down and not get my anus stretched. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Show us a pic of it fully loaded if you can, In the UK the weight you’re allowed to haul is dependant on your bike. I can’t remember exactly, something like 50% of the bikes weight I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think I'll ever need to carry that much stuff on a bike as I don't camp. Would be nice to have some extra space though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the trailer wasn’t visible in my mirrors it wouldn’t be long before daydream mode got me into serious trouble 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did love my old Beamers though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's 150kg or 2/3rds of your bikes kerbside weight, whichever is lightest. So most Harley's would be 150kg but on low weight bike it would be less. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
