any one ever pull a trailer with there sporty??

 

good question...I'll almost bet not..however don't see why you couldn't...we pull with different bikes......what are you thinking of for a trailer??? Hitch???...........BC

 

i see most of the sites that sell hitches for bikes offer on for a sporty as far as a trailer i would probably homemake one with aluminum frame and the smallest cartopper available nothing heavy i just want to put 3 or 4 days of clothes and few necessities. i had a friend years ago pulled a trailer behind a honda cb 650 all over the country.

 

Hey Bud...check-out this site......trailer.nursen.dk....that'll give you quite an insite...as for hitches......bushtec.com...maybe..or I have another one that makes them for different bike that don't usually use them...BC

 

thanx for the sites. im sure since they make hitches and acessories that it can be done im more interestyed in hearing from someone who actually has pulled a trailer with a sporty and how it affected the handling braking and such

 

a lot of it has to do with the way the trailer is loaded...tongue weight...10/15% of the load...and than there's the trailer's suspension...that has a great deal to do with the ride....also the hitch ball..amount of play at the ball makes a different..
another site...gl18oo.forum...go to trailer section....like I've said don't know of anyone pulling with a sporster...but Can't see as to why not......Be the first if need be........BC

 

I don't think they would be too good at that....I hooked a 37' camping trailer to mine and couldn't budge it...just kept spinning the tire on my bike.

 

see there's the problem....no more than 25' with the sporter...Got to read the Manual...........BC
