Gary, last night it pulled stationery duty doing just that.  Spent several hours in the garage last night.  At the shop there's a little ice box.  But no such thing in the garage here at the house.  And it's oh so far to walk in to the kitchen.  So I unzipped the cover, dumbed in some ice and six pack, and had trailer cooler beers all evening in the garage.
Ahhh, the best kind of beer. Straight off the ice. :drink: Damn you've made me thirsty, BRB. ;D

I'm sorry but I am wondering what is meant by this

I don't own a trailer, but have logged 60,000 miles in the past three years 

What would make me a " real rider " in your book ?

Not sure, but I think he meant the trailers that you pull behind your bike (a real rider) vs. the kind of trailer that you haul your bike around on (not a real rider). :nixweiss:  At least that's how I interpreted it.  I think you'd qualify BB. :)

This thread came up refreshed.  Like I need an excuse to put up a picture or three.  Or five.

Then color matched to the bike, added rear bumper and changed rear lenses.

Then mated it to the bike just a bit more closely.

Great trailer Don!  Paint detail looks EXCELLENT.  Figure it looks even better in person.

Thanks Iski.  It's really not bad.  Quite frankly I think the two or three I've seen that had the full SEEG paint scheme done to the trailer look even better.  But this one didn't turn out bad and I got it done a lot cheaper this way.  Also have the potential future benefit of it not being so wedded to the bike's appearance that it could still be sold separately someday to someone that didn't have a red SEEG.

Looked at trailers painted to match my red jester last year in Daytona, Don.  Damn nice looking, but one of them was about $5 grand - a Bushtec.  Considered the re-sale problem you referred to & decided later not to get a trailer.

Your trailer looks very good painted the way it is.  Wish I had an ice chest that big on my bike.  I suffer from beer envy, obviously.   ;D

I got the trailer used with less than 1000 miles on it for a really good price.  Then had about $800 back in the repaint, striping and graphics.  The striping and Eagle graphics make it go faster.  Actually have to worry about it passing me now.  And portable beverages have turned out to be a great thing!

Just pack his cooler when he isn't looking and try to keep up.

Iski, please stop changing your avatar photo so much it makes me think you're in the Federal Witness Protection Program.....
