I'm kinda dumb on this subject so here goes a few questions..

1. I have an 06 softail deluxe - I'm thinking i wouldn't have any problem pulling a trailer.

2. the hitch is it easily removable when not in use

3. I'm guessing the trailer lights hook up to a pigtail like on a car or truck?

I went to MB and had to pack duffle bags on the passenger seat.

Depending on the weight of the trailer, you probably won't have any problems with a lighter trailer.

Here's a link for hitches: http://www.hitchdoc.com/price.html

When you do the wiring, be sure you get a harness that has an isloator, so that if you get a short on the trailer, it doesn't fry your bikes wiring.

Go to Bushtec.com, they make some excellent wiring harnesses.
