Never seen one but they look interesting. Don't see myself ever pulling a trailer but it beats some of the big boxes you see.

5 cubic feet isn't a whole lot of room for the price. $1595 + $240 shipping + the cost of new color matched saddle bags from HD you're looking at well over $2000. All this for something you may pull two or three times a year?

It may not be alot of space but its a cool looking unit.
Q: Can I add a tour pack?
A: No, single wheel trailers must stay low and lean. Adding a tour pack would add to much weight above the center of gravity.

Q:How much can I haul?
A: We never recommend hauling over 100 lbs total weight (trailer and gear) behind your motorcycle on any trailer. Too much weight can seriously effect your braking capability.

Q: How much cargo space does the road dog have?
A: About 5 cubic feet, with standard HD bags and the cargo area combined.

Q: Does my road dog come in different colors?
A: No, Just black. Some people like to paint the fender to match their paint job, most don’t. If you do want to paint it it is made of 100% gelcoat fiberglass, your painter will just scuff it slightly and paint it.

Q: Can I title my Road Dog?
A: Yes, your new road dog comes with a VIN # and MSO ready for title.

If you're really serious about a trailer do yourself a favor and check out the Bushtec. I've pulled a 2000 Bushtec RoadStar trailer behind 3 different bikes. About 20 cubic feet of storage and it pulls so easy you can't even tell its there. As mentioned above, any trailer will have an effect on your braking distance though.
