Prairie City, IA United States | Here is a picture of the Vision with my Uni-go trailer. I have pulled this for over 3,000 miles with no problems. It does not affect the mileage much if any. The only time I have noticed it behind the bike is when you hit a bump on a curve. It tends to bounce. I think that would be the same if it had 2 wheels to.

Pittsburgh, PA | If you do not mind me asking, how much do you have into the hitch and trailer? Just curious, it looks very good.

Prairie City, IA United States | I bought the trailer used for $1,700 which was about 1/2 of a new one. The hitch is a Hitchdoc and I have around $350 invested in it and the wiring.
Another brand that is made in the states is: http://n-line.com I have seen this one on the road and it is nice looking. Not sure how well it would look with the Vision though. It is a little boxy looking. |

Westchester Co., NY | The way my wife packs I may have to start thinking about a setup like that. How do you keep it from laying on its side when not hooked up to the hitch? |

Prairie City, IA United States | The trailer has a stand built into the front along with a handle to roll it around. Now, you aren't going to pack lawn chairs and real long items in it. It has a 110 lb capacity but I have never came close to that much weight. |

| I believe from my reading years ago the Uni-GO trailers have a 5 cubic foot capacity, compared with between 19 to 27 cubic feet for the various Bushtec trailers, of which you can usually find a used one on ebay going for under $2000. I bought my 1995 (still looks like new) Bushtec Turbo II for $1500 off of a VTX forum member 6 years ago. I refuse to pay the cost of a NEW Bushtec trailer ($3500 to $6000!) for something I use once or twice a year. |
