Getting the wireing harness from NAPA that has a power converter to get trailer light power from the battery instead of the bikes system. Hope that works too.

Been eyeballing that trailer, interested to see how you like it. I get H-F 20% off coupons all the time so the price is right.

The trailer comes completely assembled in a crate 4'x8'. Some of the other places that sell Aluma Trailer you have to assemble them and they charge extra for the cooler tray. There are also some Aluma Lite and Aluma Line trailers out there that are actually Chinese products. According to my research they are made of thinner metal and 1 year or 90 day warranty. No it's not a Buschtec,Turtlehull or American Legend but I think over the years it will do just fine. I got the all diamond plate one and I don't have to worry about painting it each time I get a new bike.

Hey I know that place! I go by there on my way to work. They have a bunch of trailers sitting outside. They look pretty cool. Always wanted to stop and check them out. Maybe I will!
