The wife would probably like a backrest pad on the trunk.
If anyone has any idea on how I can improve on it, I would love to get some feedback.I do. Remove it . Just kidding man. It's ugly, but functional. At the end of the day, it's better to ride an ugly bike than not ride at all . I'm on a super minority of people who don't like to add anything not OEM-looking to his vehicles. And yes, sometimes I hate myself. He he. Good luck.
agolder, I hate you.
My wife saw your picture, and wants some armrests.
So, now (thanks to you) it's back to the drawing board...
a bad case of farkle-itis.
Currently working on a better way to secure the bike to the trailer.
(Yes, I know I'm a sinner).
Tying this Connie down securely is a PITA.
So, (I think) I found a way to do it with 4 turn buckles. (No straps).
First of all, "Farkle-itis" is an incurable disease .. .I've tried but to no avail (does it look like it bothers me?)!
Second of all, why do people put their bikes on trailers? Other than a bike that won't move because somethings wrong, I don't get it ? If my bike is running then I'm riding it to wherever it is I need to go. My bike will NEVER see a trailer unless I'm taking it to the shop for repairs and the bike won't make it on it's own ... that's the ONLY time! I feel like my bike would never forgive me if I rolled it onto a trailer when it knows it can take me where I need to go
Someone told me to "trailer" my bike home when I bought it ... NO WAY! I told them they were crazy and that I was riding home! My bike was bought 3 hours away form home so I rode it home and enjoyed every minute! The only "trailer" time my bike has ever seen was the bed of a tow truck when I punched a hole in the radiator!
Just wondering why guys do it because I have never had or known of any other reason to trailer my bike ... that's all.

NOT all of us live in a climate where we can ride year round.
I might take a trip this winter to escape the cold and could not ride out of my state even if I wanted to.
Icy roads and negative temps are not my idea of fun. Not to mention the high winds that come with many snow storms.
Fair enough .. was just wondering. I had a feeling that was it but had to ask because when the weather is bad don't you have to travel quite a distance to find good riding weather? I thought most just "bagged up" the bike and put it away (you can tell I haven't been out of California much ) for the winter.
