    Single wheel trailer

    This is my setup for trailing my bike.
    single "swivel" wheel setup.
    bolts solid to receiver so moves in conjunction with RV, no jack knife whatsoever.
    load capacity of 1K. High speed rated tire.

    Swivel wheel has various trailer models to accommodate lots of weight & vehicle options.
    Have over 5K in miles so far & no problems.

    Just putting it out there if this would be a option for members. 20240505_085650.jpg

    Interesting. How does loading and unloading work? I assume it is from the side; no imbalance issues?

      The horizontal aluminum 3 fold ramp is attached a the 3 vertical posts on trailer.
      minor side to side play when loading bike.
      trailer can be setup with duel swivel wheels at each corner with center removed.
      this would be appropriate for heavier loads & more stability.
      I am limited on weight due to tongue limit of 300 lbs per RV manufacturer even though it's a class 3 receiver which is required for this trailer.
      trailer rides smooth due to a single torsion spring suspension.

        The url showing on the bottom of the trailer (wheel.com) appears to be a health care related website with no presence of anything related to trailers or to motorcycles.
