New Enclosed Trailer
Brought home a new hauler today for the Fat Boy. It's a Legend 6x10 (plus a 3 ft. V-nose) aluminum enclosed trailer with a single torsion axle. We're thrilled to be able to hit more exotic locales now (especially in winter months). Took it out unloaded to stretch its legs tonight with a short trip to the in-laws about an hour away. I've never towed anything before so it was an experience. Other than the mpg hit and the F-150 feeling like it had a fatter ***, the trailer was exactly what we wanted. I obsessed over all the decisions/options on these things for weeks/months. I debated and debated to go bigger to get a tandem axle with brakes, but in the end I wanted as small as I could get and still feel comfortable fitting a full size Harley in it. Can always trade up later, but being a first timer this is a much better fit. My Powertyes were on the doorstep when we got back so I'll be hooking up the Fatty tomorrow for practice. We're hoping to get a short trip in right off the bat to the DUbuque, IA/Galena, IL, area (and hitting Poopy's in Savanna, IL, as well).

They're made in Michigan so probably mostly Midwest. The local dealer was phenomenal with answering my questions, their service, and taking the time to show me everything and make sure I was comfortable since this is my first. It has a 5 year warranty and 25 year warranty on the floor and roof. With everything setup (chock, tie downs, registration, tax, etc.) I was on the road at $5k. The other one I was considering was Aluma but they were quite a bit more $$$. I was mostly concerned with the manufacturer standing behind their product and dealer service after the sale.
