Trailer to tow TW behind Goldwing




I modified the cargo trailer that I tow behind my Goldwing so I can tow my TW. I used the dual quad ramps from Harbor Freight and also their wheel chock. The nice thing about this is it shortens my load and unload time by 30 minutes on each end. It also puts the bike in the exact spot needed to properly balance the load. It cost less than $100 to make the conversion. Tim suggested a bed of light expanded metal so I can haul a little camping gear. I will be adding that in the future. My truck only gets 6.8 mpg and my Wing gets 35+ mpg. That will save me about $.40 per mile.
