Default Trailer

Does anyone know of a good website that sells used trailers or someone that has a nice trailer 4 sale close to the Ks. area? Have a bike the doesnt run and needs engine work. Need a way to haul it to a friend in another state for repair.

Thanks for the replies. and yes, checked into the common sense approach of renting a U-haul only to find out they have no tie-downs nor could u add them. I would like it to be a enclosed trailer as well but if i don't find something soon I'll prob. rent a small bumper pull trailer and make that work.

Uhaul rents an open motorcycle trailer. Good look finding one where you want it though.

come on. rent a U-Haul enclosed. Cut two 2x6's for the width of the trailer. get three 2x6's the length of the trailer. cut two of the trailer length ones 11 inches shorter lay the trailerlength on top of the cross pieces and bolt together. Now lag screw the shorter 2x6's verticle to the 2x6 running the length inside of the cross pieces. Add eye bolts to cross pieces. load bike and secure to cross pieces. If you want, use construction liquid nail under cross pieces to trailer floor and scrape off later.
