@MarkAlexanderBuchanan
@MarkAlexanderBuchanan 5 дней назад
Great trailer and great video. Those front straps look like they will scratch your paintwork once you have been driving for a bit though. Also, with a front wheel grab, you want to pull the bike forward into the grab, rather than downwards as you have the straps set up. Maybe try attaching the straps to the top of the crash bars and pull forward. Thanks for the content though. I like your style.

Search MotoLug, a lot smaller and tow two bikes at once if you choose the right model. I used to have one, they are good for what it is but all single axle are bouncy on the UK roads. I eventually replaced it with a horsebox trailer lol because I can sweep all bike parts in even when I crash into bits on track. I still miss my motolug though. Different course different horse.
@LifeofSmokey
@LifeofSmokey 2 года назад
Haha agree. This model also comes in a two bike option. I did see the motolug but it doesn't drop all the way into the ground and still has that scary small ramp you have to push your bike up 😅
@XtremeCoke
@XtremeCoke 2 года назад
@@LifeofSmokey thats right, I end up with quite a few trailer tyres, stock at 8 inch, upgraded 10 inch - they left a different gap to the ground also depends on tow ball height of the vehicle. Its really important to use the bigger size tyres as they are spinning considerably slower. I'm not convinced with the 8inch wheel at high speed haha. Now I am towing a Debon C500, 13 inch wheels, twin axle and come with suspension and a shelter. Just too big when not in use. I guess there's always a compromise and a balanced choice to be considered by individual.

Nope if you hit a heavy bump your front suspension will decompress and the straps will come lose. Been there done that , never doing that again 😅. But if you lock your front wheel it's also good ofcourse but the V shape where i ride my front wheel in does not have something to strap the wheel in place 😅

@LifeofSmokey
@LifeofSmokey Год назад
Yeah they are a small French local business. They don't care about expanding 😅🙈. Also their marketing is sooo bad 😂. And 890 vs 1290 for me is pretty simple and depends on the amount of offroad use. If you plan on riding it offroad all the time or a lot I would go for the 890 because of the weight. If you plan on riding more onroad and some trails here and there I would prefer the 1290. It's as fast as a Superduke R until 3rd gear make no mistake 😅
