Trailer for Tanarg - Side View

Needed something > 7ft wide to fit this beast. Ended up modifying a car tow dolly to keep it nice and light, Could use some type of bra to keep the rocks etc down on longer trips, but gets it to the airport or drylake really easily

    Sharp looking, wide and low trike (> 7 feet).  Classic "hyper-vibrant Ken Colors"-- who has red cement? ;)

    How 'bout a storage bin in front of each rear wheel (as a rock deflector), and fuel/storage to protect the nose.

    It's also a very rear heavy loaded trailer (like Jozinko's was), do you find it tows OK?  High speed?

    Good ideas @XCTriker All the weight on the Tanarg is right over the rear wheels ( learned this during my fuel tank experiment), which you can see are right over and just slightly forward of  the axle.  I think that puts fuel storage near the back, but I definitely see some tool boxes in my future. I'm thinking some expanded mesh decking might work as well. It tows really well, had to get a lowered hitch, but the low CG and larger wheels for a trailer this size smooth it out pretty well.

    BTW I notice that @Fun_Factor is getting a trailer similar to this one that Buddy (@ROADKING20) posted on Facebook. Really sharp trike BTW, cant wait till some photos are posted here!

    Thanks Ken!! Buddy is doing a great job!! I'll post pictures in the next couple of weeks. That's a great looking trike you have there. The trailer does look very much like what Buddy is building.
