>How do the 955 Sprints handle towing a trailer?
I've never understood why someone would want to have an additional
400-600 pounds of weight they need to brake for. Not to mention what
they do to the handling. I too have seen some pretty scary scenes
involving trailers behind motorcycles. Motorcycle touring to me isn't
about taking everything including the kitchen sink. That's what RV's
are for. Maybe you could rent a convertible, or trailer the ST?

'99 Sprint ST - for going fast and far (2CZUSA)
'01 KLR650 - for exploring the North Coast backroads
'97 KLX300 & '01 Lakota - for playing in the dirt
'79 KZ400 - just because it was the first vehicle I ever owned
