I wouldn't haul my son's CRF50F dirt bike on that thing - what a joke.

Looks like an old boat trailer axle set up. Probably would support the weight, but too short for a harley. Now if it would tilt down for loading, that would work. Didn't even look for the price, but could be re-worked to suit. I take that back, looks like mobile home axle, 10 ply tires, for sure strong enough, just not the length.

By the looks of it, the owner should pay someone to haul it away...

Looks fine for the intended purpose....At least it's got springs unlike the "Trailer in a Bag", which is hawked to HD riders.

Funny, that same harbor freight trailer new costs $229., The same trailer with 12" wheels is only about 20 bucks more. The condition it's in, I'm thinkin' $100 is all I would pay.

I wouldn't pay anything for that unless I wanted to make an insurance claim in my near future. That trailer is scary to say the least.
