You don't know what your missing.

I do plenty of dangerous stuff.

That’s a very pretty trailer

There aren't a lot of places you can get a comment like that!

But there should be. I’d join a trailer forum.

I'm sure some exist, if not, maybe someone here will set up a sub forum!

Well, you’re both here. Have at it.

Just kidding. I need to get an MC trailer too but can’t squeeze the blood out of the turnip.

There is no question I will drop my new taller, heavier motorcycle while loading or unloading, but the question is really how badly I get hurt and how much the damage to my body and $$$ costs for equipment!?! I figured squeezing a little hard now ... saves tons of blood, pain and $$$ later. PS:Getting older by the day, too.

I used to load my dual sport on my S10 with ramps (one for the bike and one for me) when it was in good enough condition to drive up to the desert. One trip I was loading up and didn’t attach the safety strap. The ramp I was on slipped, I fell, and the bike came down on top of me mashing my inner thigh just above the knee. I had a goose egg the size of a baseball. I still had to load the truck, drive home in stop and go traffic with a clutch, and when getting home had to unload the gear knowing that once I stopped and went to urgent care I wouldn’t be able to get started again.
Fortunately, no broken bones. Just a hugely swollen leg and bloody elbow.

Fun, Fun.

I don't even have a trailer, but that motorcycle hitch carrier is catching my attention.

Friend was loading a Triumph when it fell on him. Destroyed his knee. Every mcl and acl was shredded. Broken knee cap. That was 40 years ago. I still remember him screaming from a block away. They life flighted him to the bigger hospitals in Pittsburgh.

Yep ... that's what I fear ... hurting myself to have fun. I appreciate you guys helping to rationalize the expense of the MC10 moto trailer. I must admit, I struggled spending the money .... but I kept telling myself this was a valuable purchase for me, right now. I feel good about it. Now on to installing the Pitbull trailer mount and front tire chock. Thanks, guys.

I’m not a motorcycle person, but I simply love trailers, and towing. That’s a very pretty trailer.
