checked that one out. not really siutable is it?
halaluya, ive just found the two bicycle trailers i had in mind. they are at www.bobgear.com/ and www.koolstop.com/trailers/mute.html they are different in how the luggage is mounted but they hitch on the same way. the motorbike equivilant would be to attach the trailer to the end of the swing arm. im going to e-mail them and see how much a motorbike customised one would cost. another handling advantage is the big lowering of center of gravity. theres a picture on the bobgear site that shows a mountain biker with a mono bob riding through a 1 foot wide track. think of the weight ratio between the trailer and bycyle. it is definitely more than the difference from trailer to motorbike. that is if its made in the fashion of these examples. good luck nick chow tom |
Hai Tom,
Just go for it. Think about the idiotic idea's of einstein, edison, bell, marconi, telsa, wright brothers, blues brothers and many more fools. Who know's... you might end up with the nobell price for inovative dirt-track transport. (or is there no such price?) As far as the CSR is concerned, I guess a fusion-reactor give great fuell/milage. http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/ubb/wink.gif And.. on a more serieuse note: I think, if it's light enaugh, it might work. But maybe you should not attach it to the swingarm. On road-legal motorcycle trailers it's attached to the bike itself. If you increase the weight of the wheel (and swingarm) it become's less capable of folowing the road. I don't know the technical term in englisch, but I guess you know what I mean. Good luck!

Yeah, I think a swing-arm mounting is asking for trouble - check out the Schuring Freebird
www.schuring.nl/trailers_2.htm#FreeBird The hitch seems to attach just behind the seat, and they say it has been tested at 180 kph. I keep emailing them with questions about ground clearance etc. but no reply - I suppose they think I'm crazy! |
yep the swing arm idea with further thought is loopy. on a bicycle the chain stays dont move so its fine to connect too them.
