Re: Todays question form the closet

[David Ben-Jamin <dbenj@xxxxxxxx>]

No shame in owning a trailer. They're quite convenient for taking the bike
to the dealer if you don't have a ride back, and they're certainly useful
for track days or schools (best to be 100% before a spirited track day). 

If you're looking for an inexpensive folding trailer, check out:

This is the trailer I have. It's great because it fits in the back of the
garage and it can even double as a utility trailer. You just add your own
plywood and a pop-chock and you're on your way. Plus, you don't need a
truck to tow it. I use my Nissan 240SX. Total cost for everything,
including adding plywood, eyebolts, tiedowns, etc. was about $500.

Feel free to email me if you have any questions.
