Good small single rail trailer for a car?

[Stardog]

Does anyone have a suggestion for a good small trailer that I can put behind a small car for towing one motorcycle?

Since you won't be pulling it far, check out harbor freight's trailers. Just make sure to keep the maintenance up on those bad boys

A *good* single-rail trailer would be the Kendon fold-up. It ain't cheap though.

I agree with the Harbor Freight suggestion for a cheapie. Or if you don't want to buy, just rent the U-Haul one when you need it. I did that for my whole first track season, towing behind a Ford Focus.

There is no real good and cheap solution for this. The best value is probably somewhere along the lines of a Trinity trailer ($1,475), but they do not fold up. The Kendon trailers do fold up, but they also start around $2,280. If you're going to do track days and/or trailer your bike(s) out to places with fun roads, then it is definitely a worthwhile investment. But yeah, it hurts.

Rick's suggestion is the best suggestion

Rick had me sold but it looks like there are some of those kendon trailers on craigslist.

Screw all of that, it doesn't cost that much to haul around a damn bike. You can get a normal trailer well under a grand.

This looks like a good option. I emailed him to see if he had the MCO for it.

Yep, you can use a utility trailer, but they don't perform nearly as well as a motorcycle trailer. I've used both, and there is no comparison.

If its in good condition, then that is not a bad deal.

I paid $910 for my trailer than can fit 3 bikes.

Well the thing is that I drive a sentra. I need low weight more than high capacity.

A modern car can pull quite a bit of weight. I know Miata guys pulling motorcycles behind them. Don't worry so much about the weight. I like utility trailers over a dedicated motorcycle one because you can do so much more with a utility trailer (haul branches, haul ATV's, couches, beds, etc). Hence the name "utility"... Of course all of that stuff can be done with a truck too. The heavier trailers tend to track better than the light ones when there is no load on them at least in my experience.

A Baxley trailer would be the way to go, especially if you can find a used one of the older model, that is just the rail without the decking. But again, not cheap.
