Motorcycle Trailers For Sale near St. Paul, MN

When it comes to hitting the open road on two wheels, sometimes you need the convenience of bringing along your motorcycle without actually riding it. Whether it's for a long-distance move, a vacation, or a trip to the mechanic, a motorcycle trailer is an invaluable tool for any bike enthusiast. But with so many options available, how do you choose the right one? Think about some of the key factors when purchasing a motorcycle trailer, to ensure that you make an informed decision that suits your needs.    

Here are a few important points to consider, when shopping for motorcycle trailers!
 

The first thing to consider is size. You want a trailer that can comfortably fit your motorcycle, without wasting space. Measure your bike's length, width, and height and compare it to the trailer's dimensions. Keep in mind that if you own more than one motorcycle or plan to haul additional gear, you might need a larger trailer. 

Compact trailers are ideal for single motorcycles and are easier to store, while larger trailers can accommodate multiple bikes or additional cargo, perfect for a touring holiday or a group ride.  Remember, a trailer that's too small can be damaging to your motorcycle, and one that's too large may be cumbersome to tow and more challenging to store!
 

The right features can make towing a breeze and keep your motorcycle safe during transport. For example, look for a trailer with a built-in ramp for easy loading and unloading. Additionally, ensure there are multiple points to secure your bike. Adjustable tie-down points are even better as they provide flexibility for different sized motorcycles.

A good suspension system will also protect your motorcycle from bumps and vibrations on the road. Think about how you'll use the trailer and which features are most important to you. A well-equipped trailer can make all the difference in convenience and functionality!
 

Finally, consider the towing capacity of your vehicle. It's vital to know how much weight your car or truck can handle. Each trailer has a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR), which includes the weight of the trailer, plus the load it's carrying. Check your vehicle's owner's manual for towing specifications. Additionally, ensure the sum weight of the trailer and your motorcycle doesn't exceed your vehicle's towing capacity. Remember to consider the weight of any additional gear you plan to carry.

Keep in mind that towing a trailer that's too heavy can be dangerous and may cause damage to your vehicle. It's always better to err on the side of caution, and ensure that your vehicle is more than capable of handling the load!
