Hey expoportal, Im looking for a small expo trailer, something basic with a little storage that I can mount an rtt to. The smaller the trailer the better for storage purposes, something like the size of a tentrax would be perfect.

Ive found a little motorcycle pull behind trailer, like the small trailers that a harley would tow, that has a lid which would be great for storage, I figured I can mount a roof rack on it and then mount the rtt. Has anyone done anything similar?

I see a lot of great $5,000 expo trailers but thats way out of budget for what id like to do.

Thanks!

RRT on a motorcycle trailer my only warning would be axle length ie trailer width vs tip stability. The motorcycle type trailers are narrow.

On a side note I saw a hard core Hells Angel riding a clapped out Harley towing a 18ft Zodiac down Highway 80 at 75mph a few yrs ago. At first I thought some crazy was driving a Zodiac on a trailer down the highway.

Thanks! I actually don't have a need to tow my motorcycles on the trailer, I meant using the small trailers that motorcycles tow behind them

I think you're right about that, the trailer is pretty narrow and short but also very light. I don't think I'll be wheeling too much with it but having the rtt on a trailer would be a huge plus so I can get my dog up in the rtt. I'll be towing it with an suv though.

If you are looking for inexpensive and small a Harbor Freight trailer or one from Lowes or Home Depot works well. The trailer on the far right of the picture is a trailer for lawn mowers that has a RTT mounted on it. It works well and can be removed easily to use the trailer for other purposes.

It's my buddies trailer so I don't have any better pictures of it. It has storage under the tent.
