    If you do a forum search on Aluma TK1 you will see a picture of someone with a small SUV hooked to one of these with a Roadsmith trike on it.

    Loaded my trike on to the trailer today to decide where to mount the front wheel Chock.

    Default Trike cover when trailering

    Does anyone make a cover that will stay on the trike while trailering but not flap in the breeze and damage the paint?

    We have an Aluma HSLR 7712 trailer for our CSC Victory trike and have had no problems. Make sure you have some form of rick guard on the front of the trailer. I went ahead and had 2-ft. Solid sideboards put on so that I could also use the trailer to haul lawn waste. Also, make sure when you place your wheel chock, it will position the center of the weight of the trike over the trailer axle to keep the bouncing to a minimum.

    This trailer comes with the rock guard already installed. I took it out on the road for the first time with the trike loaded, it is going to pull great.

    Nooo don't cover it!

    I towed my two wheeled Suzuki, a few years ago before I purchased my wing, My distance was maybe 100ish miles, by the time I uncovered the bike I almost cried (actually I did cry)...The paint was destroyed , with the rubbing of the tarp the whole distance ...NOO0 don't cover it!

    Nice looking Trike and Trailer. I have a Roadsmith GL1800 and have the enclosed trailer but have a Ram 1500 5.7 so no problem pulling it. It not I would look into that trailer. Ride Safe

    The extra 2 feet makes a world of difference ... When ATC's first came out i got a trailer that it just fit in....Then i got a ATV i had to get a larger one.....Then i got a Rhino , Yep another trailer i should have bought the 12 by 6 1/2 in the first place..

    My point is buy more then you need,
    I have a 6 1/2' by 10' landscape trailer and my 97 Roadsmith wing fits just fine. I bought a good quality wheel chock and mounted it as close to the front as possible. I've taken it many times with no problems. The ramp that comes with the trailer is too short so the bike would bottom out. I bought (3) 9'-0" ramps from discountramps.com made for motorcycles and trikes. They're expensive but fold up in half and fit right into the bed of the truck. I strap the front tire into the locking wheel chock and also to the trailer frame. I also strap the "crash bars" to the tie down hooks. I'm pretty sure that alone would secure the bike but I also secure both back tires to the trailer hooks.

    My trailer came with the fromt wheel Chock, the ramp stowes under the bed of the trailer, it is low and no high centering when loading. I added tiedowns in fromt and back of the tires and got a strap that goes over the rear tires and ratchets dowm, it won’t

    I love those Aluma trailers. I only posted because someone was questioning if a 10' trailer would be long enough for their trike. I already owned the landscape trailer so I had to find a way to make it work but it is super heavy and hard to move around even when empty. Maybe someday when I retire and have more time to travel I'll get an Aluma.

    Yep, Once you go to an Aluma trailer you'll see that the weight saving on your back is worth every extra penny..

    Been there found that out...
