chag67 Posted October 6, 2013 #1 Posted October 6, 2013 I live in Montgomery, AL and I'm looking for a pull behind trailer for my 07 RSV. I like the "cartop" looking trailers as they are cheaper and light weight. Does anyone know of a dealer or place that sells them within 100 miles of Montgomery. I don't want to spend over $1500 and I don't want to spend money on shipping.
Brake Pad Posted October 6, 2013 #2 Posted October 6, 2013 home depot, has the car top carriers for sale for $99.00 bucks, and they look good, HF for the trailer
dacheedah Posted October 6, 2013 #3 Posted October 6, 2013 You can get the HF kits at HF for $399, with the discount and if you buy in the store you should walk out well under that. Several threads on improving the trailer but you can come in les than $500.00 with several modifications. http://www.harborfreight.com/600-lb-capacity-78-inch-tag-along-trailer-66771.html

chag67 Posted October 6, 2013 Author #7 Posted October 6, 2013 I really like that piggybacker.com trailer. I wouldn't mind getting that one. Anyone have any experience putting it together and how it lasts?
KeithR Posted October 6, 2013 #8 Posted October 6, 2013 The Piggybacker is easy to put together with a few basic tools. I did have an issue with the rims/tires when I first received mine but they replaced them with the new solid rims that they are using now. Tows well...lots of room.....mine came with spare bearings/locks/seals/catch's(not sure if that's standard policy?) They are great people to deal with. Keith
chag67 Posted October 7, 2013 Author #9 Posted October 7, 2013 How easy is it to hook up the electrical? Does it plug in the adapter like I have on my truck?
M61A1MECH Posted October 7, 2013 #10 Posted October 7, 2013 The best way to wire a Venture for a trailer is to use a powered isolator. If the trailer does not have separate lights for the brakes and the turn signals , like bike does you will need a 4 wire to 3 wire converter. These are the same as used or cars, they are made by folks like HOPPY and CURT.

I've got an extra pull behind Northern Handiman trailer with a car top luggage carrier mounted to it I might be willing to part with since I have two trailers now. Much cheaper than $1,500.00 I would sell mine for $500
