  1. Hi I have ridden with a trailer since "85" or before. The 60lb tire pressure is for maximum load. If you do this with a small trailer you will wearout the tread out of the middle of the tire and it will bounce all over the place. I run with 20lbs and get good tire life and very little bounce even though my trailer does not have any springs. I've ran with and without (harbor freight) and without has been smoother. As for swivels, it hasn't been an issue as I could put the old hog on it's running boards and the trailer stayed right there. The only guy I know of that has trashed a trailer behind a bike, was on a Wing w/swivel and the trailer did flip flops as he went around an exit ramp. And as the lawyer would say these are only my experiences, not ment for everyone. Latr Chris
  2. Hi Everyone New to the Venture scene, been on Harleys for years and wore the last one out and decided to upgrade to something different. Bought a recovered bike, that was in Dallas, flew down and picked it up on a Thursday afternoon and was home in Corbett OR Sunday night. 2500+ miles and my back side didn't hurt when I got home, marvelous! Worse problem was keeping a radio station in tune. 2 things I'm in need of the left side motor guard, and the windshield cowling, this is a 2004. Is there a good place to look for salvaged parts or to buy new at a discount? (besides Ebay) Latr Chris
