Cheers

Dang, have you heard of the Internet ..Friend ?
You likely can see how to build the rig on U tube as well.

Go fourth and enjoy the build.

Keep calm and top up the oil...friend.!

Ok, Jeff.. you've asked for some trailer plans, I've notioned you to the Internet which by the way has slightly less options than typing in (pussy).....
Believe me, I just tried it,..and as you are accessing this forum you will have the Internet..yeah?
The other thing is that this forum won't likely have trailer plans as its about a motorbike.

Not that it's worth getting stressed about....

Totally stress free here.....friend!

Actually, it's not as simple as it sounds because the UK has a few rules about trailers, chassis number and brakes I think. Google is definitely your friend though as that's as much as I know about it LOL (my knowledge comes from listening to a bunch of dodgy bikers talking about building a trailer and someone chipped in with that comment!!!)

It's all cool here, and i think i have come up with a cunning plan!

Are you looking to tow your trailer with your motorcycle or putting your motorcycle on the trailer ? Just trying to narrow down the search

Looking at building a trailer to put the bike on.
Just thought as this site has a lot of guys who would rather build stuff rather than buy ready made, someone may have done it before.

At some stage i shall build another trailer. The current one i have adapted for my use but its not ideal, however i can just about load the bike on my own. Wouldnt bother with plans, just measure the bike you want it for and design it around your needs. Next time i will make a kneeling trailer, You make the axle
so that it will rorate around the wheel centres using a long bar you can then make it lower itself down so the back end is level with the road. Makes life so much easier if you are on your own.
Have a look on youtube for the principle then make it nice and simple. There is a firm around that make a nice simple one like i have described. If i can find a link i'll add it for you. Also i made a box that bolts on top of mine to make it multi purpose. Keep it as light as possible too and just 2 wheels is better for economy and ease of moving it around.
Found it..search youtube on "roll on - roll off motorcycle traler"
this one has the action i am thinking of.
I was going to use a removable bar to operate and a nut and bolt to secure in the up position.
