Pulled one may times with previous bikes. Never a problem. Use your head, exercise common sense and you will be fine. Most of the time. Didn't know it was there.

 

Also, slow down before going into a turn and accelerate thru the turn, if not the trailer will try to stand you bike up in the corner.

 

Wow, Great posts and fantastic comments. Even the negitive ones. Thanks for all the info and have a great summer all!

I got some reading to do...

I had a Aluma and its a lot of trailer for the money. You can spend more and get a better trailer.
On a trip I had a bearing fail in the primary. So I pulled into a dealer in Colorado and it was fixed, no questions asked.

 

I borrowed an Aluma from my nephew, and towed it two up all the way from Missouri to Washington DC and back. We rode through rain almost everyday and the only problem I had with the trailer was the lid leaked (we were running highway speeds). I would buy one is a heartbeat if I could find one at a decent price. They tend to hold their value. I don't believe HD would void the warranty, since so of their dealers sell hitches and trailers on the side...

Mine was as tight as a drum. They changed the location of the lock from the top where water would leak through the lock to the back (vertical) on the model year I had.

 

I have pulled a home made one wheel trailer all over the country, with no issues. Used a Thule pod and built a frame for it. Used a mountain bike rim and tire. It wasn't pretty, but it sure was nice to have the extra storage. Makes it real easy to pack stuff. Momma loves to shop. Never had any issues, or flats. It takes a bit of getting used too, just picking the bike off the side stand and you will feel it, and when you are traveling real slow. Other than that, I would say go ahead and pull one.

 

I've been pulling my Bushtec Turbo+2 since 05 They are a little more expensive but with the swivel hitch and durability. I talked to a guy that got 1 in 85 and still pulling it. 7 bikes later.
As far as warranty I have pulled into H-D dealerships unhooked my wagon had stuff done the dealers have not said a word yet.
Just remember stopping distance and its back there when changing lanes.

 

I have always been intrigued by the unigo trailer,
an dI have seen 2 of them on bikes and they look
as good as a trailer can look on a bike for me. They
seem to have a large amount of storage space
comparitively speaking and track great according
to the video footage on the website. I asked both
owners on the times I have seen them and they
both said they tracked great also.

I've been pulling a triler since 98...mostly 2 wheelers, now behind the Tri Gllide....have a Bushtec Roadstar....I'm on my 2ND Bushtec ( sold the first one with a bike, never do that again)...I wouldn't leave on a trip without mine, just to damn handy...never had any issues with any of them....maybe a taillight etc...nothing major.

Common sense.....allow some extra room for stopping, the major thing is to remember it's back there and not pull it into a gas pump or something
