Bob,

I really have to agree with you on that one, but those custom paint jobs really suck you in!  Black works great for all of your rides and of course, black goes with everything!  Martha is already measuring the inside of the trailer to determine what size bags she can fit in there with all of her stuff.  I already know the size of the saddlebag liner that I get to use. 

There's definitely an art to packing and I'm sure she'll be talking to one of the pros to get some pointers.  ;)

im thinking yamaha stratoliner with corbin bags

You are correct, sir...nice bags, but Corbin has had problems with their painting from what I'm reading.  Paint blisters.

But this whole bike has been custom painted...looking from the rear, I can't tell what kind of fairing he has on it, but probably Corbin as well.  No visible body work on the rear end...that's just the way the bags fit..even the stock leather ones.

Craig...trailer looks great!!  Hard and fast rule at my house: NO TRAILERS!!! :nervous:

Here's Craig thinking,

O chit, can't show Martha the space in the cooler.
She will fill it up also!

Just a little suggestion..
When we picked our bushtec up they recommended that we turn the cooler around so that if by any chance you
forget to zip the cooler closed the flap wont fly up and scratch the trailer.
It makes since and it works...

Already done, but thanks for the heads up anyway.  Samuel told me the same thing when I took delivery of the trailer and I asked him why they don't just reverse the design and have the seam in the back with the lid opening toward the front.  He said a new cover was in the works.  I just hate the thought of even opening the cooler and letting the cover lay against the paint when a little road grime from the ride could easily scratch the paint.

Great looking trailer.  Cool that it is not too far from you guys.

Real cool, cause that means it is not that far from us either.

Mmmmm, wonder what I am thinking.  :nixweiss:

Craig,
Great looking trailer, the ghost flames are over the top! I know you'll enjoy the extra space when traveling, I know I love my American Legend.( not as fancy as the Bushtec but it works)
