This was my first bagger, an 89 Ultra Classic and my first Bushtec, Turbo.  I bought the trailer used, but I had it painted to match.  One of the trophys sitting on the ice chest.  Sorry for the poor quality.....they're pictures of a photograph from decades ago.

 I believe your bike and trailer are on the Bushtec website in their gallery. Awesome set-up. Congrats.

Here's my rig. '97 Ultra with an American Legend behind.

Long since sold but was great when I had a need, prior to my wife riding her own Ultra.

We found this bushtec for sale locally on Craigslist one cold February day, it was painted to match the previous owners gold wing and like FXD_TG's, the color was a close enough match that we left it alone.

  Painting fiberglass, to do it correctly, you have to take the entire trailer apart, frame off, removed all the lights, lid, trim, bumper, etc.  The labor runs the bill up. :nervous: 

So it's icing on the cake when the color of a used trailer matches the bike enough that you don't have to shell out the ducats.

Ya know, sometimes ya wake and just feel like causing trouble...so here goes.
There should be a 1-800 number, something like 1-800-HOG-ABUSE to report such treatment of such fine machines. I would never treat my baby like that, making her drag around a ball and chain, (sorry I am referring to the trailers, nothing else), just to satisfy my need for unnecessary creature comforts. I would go without before I would subject my Rose to such cruel and humiliating torture...its just not right...although I am not married so I guess its a little easier for me to do without. Please be gentle with any rebuttals...thanks!

I understand completely.  I felt the same until I had my first one.  Travelling two or three weeks from home, two up with our riding buddy on his bike (and being able to put one of his bags out of prying eyes) plus taking some tools, it was very handy.  I don't pull one now but wouldn't hesitate to get another one if the need arose.
