1BigDog Posted July 6, 2008 #1 Posted July 6, 2008 Ill be starting on my new H/F trailer soon. Bought the 8" wheel kit this past spring and just picked up a Karrite Explorer carrier from Pep Boys yesterday. This will be my second trailer that I have built. The first one was stock size with a 20cf Sears topper and 12" wheels. I had diamond plated the frame, which was time consuming. The new one will be closely color matched, narrowed and shortened. Hopefully ill have it ready by Sept. I think the Explorer topper is sturdier than the Sears topper and it opens from the side. It also looks more aerodynamic than the Sears...you know, for less wind drag on those 150 mph interstate runs....
Eck Posted July 6, 2008 #3 Posted July 6, 2008 150 mph interstate runs.... yea...right...hell a tail wind huh... you better not be tearing up my bike now..
1BigDog Posted July 7, 2008 Author #4 Posted July 7, 2008 Whats going on in September? Nothing special, Mike...just a deadline to finish it. Last one took me 3 months with all the hand diamond plating I did. 150 mph interstate runs.... yea...right...hell a tail wind huh... you better not be tearing up my bike now.. So ECK...how about making a cash investment on improvements to "YOUR" bike. I mean you do want it to be top notch for when you inherit it, dontcha??? I figure new rear shock..chrome forks, chrome wheels and i'd even install WW tires just for you...Lets see....maybe $3.000 will cover it nicely.

Gee, I'd grab that offer real quick, I don't care how many 0's are behind a decimal point, 3 bucks is 3 bucks...
DaveDanger Posted September 14, 2008 #6 Posted September 14, 2008 Gee, I'd grab that offer real quick, I don't care how many 0's are behind a decimal point, 3 bucks is 3 bucks... I'll top his offer and give you $4.000 right this minute! I'll even come get it!
1BigDog Posted September 16, 2008 Author #7 Posted September 16, 2008 Heck, Eck didnt even send me the 3 bucks, much less 3 grand....He will be lucky if he gets a bare frame at this point!!
