Need advice on Trailer Purchase

[SJR]

Hi Guys.....looking for some advice.
I would like to purchase a Trike Trailer. My ride is a 2010 Ultra-Classic with a California Sidecar Conversion. Total length is 112 inches.
I'm looking for a trailer similar to a Kendon or a Drop-Tail type that I can fold and stand up in the Garage.
The Drop-Tail guys only make trailers for trikes up to 106 inches
(pretty stupid in my opinion) why not add 6-8 inches to the deck and increase your potential customer pool?

Any one have an idea for me? You guys almost always come through.

Also...any CVO patches or pins available?

What about backing onto trailer and letting section behind rear wheels hang off front. Then you would fit on that size trailer. Might need an electric winch to pull you up there. JC Whitney catalog has lots of plug in winches that would do it.

SJR - Look at the Baxley Ad on this page. They ought to have trailer that will work for you and their trailers fold up for easy storage. The have dealers around the country.

Baxley has no problem adding any amount of deck for your ride , also they have one that folds up for storage

Baxley trailers are very nice, but I was trying to spend only half of what they cost. For over 6 thousand I could get a double axle enclosed trailer.

That's what I'm still considering as well. A double axle enclosed trailer. As long as you have the space to store it outside, the enclosed trailer can be used for other storage when not trailering the trike. Here's the one I'm considering,. Just wish it was closer to where I live.

I have a 9' with a folding rear gate that was about 3" short of being enough for my trike. I took the trailer to a welder and had him modify the front to utilize the space between the tongue supports. This made more than enough room for the front wheel to fit into and effectively added about 18" to the trailer length at a very reasonable price. Can do pix if you want.

I own a Myco. she is a folding trailer, with just a slight mod I have removabale ramps. My 2001 Ultra fits just fine. I know that Myco no longer sells bikw trailers, but there out there, just have to look for one.

Again, if you have room to store it, I have a canvas cover stretched over a custom aluminum frame on my 6 X 10 flatbed trailer from these folks:

Works super....sort of aerodynamic. secure and a very workable solution.
