    Sweet bike, I like the idea of having extra fuel on board too! Can you add more pics of the rack and fuel can? :-D

    That trailer is cool. Did you make that yourself? And those hand guards are life savers. Cool Bike.

      I did build the trailer frame in my garage. The hand guards are just there to keep the winter wind off my hands. They're a very cheap set with no metal bar at all.

    Don't suppose you have plans drawn up for that trailer?
    1. k-moe
      Nope. I built it to fit the cargo box. There is a thread on ADVRider.com that has better info about building single wheel trailers than I could write up.
