Thinking of getting a trailer or sidecar? Check this guys website out for an index to known motorcycle and auto trailers. Some of these are really cool!

Cool site, Stan. Thanks.
Marsha and I have been looking and comtemplating trailers for the Draggon Trike. I am very lucky in that she is a light packer. I think we have about decided to come up with a platform/basket/box or something that plugs into the receiver hitch. That will give us enough room for just one more bag. Should be about right. -Dan |

Dan, I've seen these used a lot on bikes. One fellow says he put self adheasive weather stripping around the bottom of lid to make it more water proof. All you need is a cooler rack to strap it to.

Rick, I've been using the 48 gal version in the back of my pick-up for years. It's bolted to the front of the bed liner to keep it from sliding around.

I have contemplated using one of those. Or something like it.
I am also contemplating buying another tour trunk and mounting it to a frame that will plug into the receiver. Maybe even add some more lights to the back. -Dan |

Dan, I may be able to help you on the tour trunk part. A distant neighbor of mine has one from an older Goldwing just sitting on the shelf. It has a pretty decent looking chrome luggage rack on top of it also. It's shaped kind of like the rear of your trike. Don't know if he would sell it or not, but it would'nt hurt to ask if you are interested.

Thanks Stan.
That might work. I have been looking at boxes on eBay and kicking around ideas. I have also given a passing thought to buying an aluminum diamond plate tool box to make one. That might look pretty cool with some tail lights and a license plate rack added to it. -Dan Let me know about the tour box. |

Dan,
Some of this stuff from RIVCO might work with your trike. saturn.dnsprotect.com/~rivcopro/products/product.php?productid=36&cat=397&page=1 saturn.dnsprotect.com/~rivcopro/products/product.php?productid=98&cat=397&page=1 saturn.dnsprotect.com/~rivcopro/products/product.php?productid=361&cat=397&page=1 saturn.dnsprotect.com/~rivcopro/products/product.php?productid=232&cat=397&page=1 The only problem is that the racks are aluminum and not safety chrome.
