well, at least it won't grow up to be a garage queen...however i have heard that harleys can catch a cold when hauled on an open trailer. maybe you should throw a kerosene heater on the trailer and use it to keep the bike warm.

Uncle has a cabin in DeLand, spending time with cousins already retired and spending winter there. They won't want to spend much time on main street, I'll be lucky to get there twice if i do. Plan is to ride away, stopping at local watering holes. Goal is to put some miles on the new motorcycle. Had it since 5Jan and only have 541 miles on it. Kinda like a kid with a new Christmas present....Can't wait to get out of the snow belt.

So do you do the biker "wave" when hauling your bike?

Make sure you get the window down in time!

I have a 2008 Ford Harley Davidson Edition F-150 SuperCrew Loaded with every option for that year! Satelite Radio, Heated Leather seats, Sunroof, Potent V8, Trailer Tow Package, Navigation, Added a Mag-Hytec Deep dish Trans pan & Diff cover for added cooling, ARE Locking Fiberglass Tonneau Cover for extra storage, Power Rear slider window! Pulls my Enclosed single axle V-Nose trailer like its not even there! All three Truck, Trailer, Bike are black to match! Would rather take my truck over my 2011 Ford Crown Victoria LX Any day of the week! ............
