I pull an American Legend Bandit with the cooler mounted on the tongue. Mine is black and no frills, goes with everything. ;)
I can't blame the wife for carrying too much stuff. I pull it when I travel solo just because I don't want all the extra weight on the bike and I like the way it stabilizes the bike when on the road.

Nice looking rig, did Bushtec paint the trailer?

They sure did. Sent them a side cover for color match. The quality is absolutely top notch!

Boy, I don't remember. Ordered it new and had it shipped but I don't remember the total time. I'll check the paperwork when I get home tonight....

I have a American Legend Sport that has a boat load of miles on it. Same thing, hate to leave home without it. I just sent mine out to be color matched to our new bike. We should see it back in 3-4 weeks. I'll post pics once it's done..

Took about three weeks from order date to completion. Took about another week for it to arrive by truck. They do a really great job of packing it in a crate. Arrived in pristine condition.

Sorry, guess what I ment was how long did they have your bike part to do the color match....  they sent it back before the trailer didn't they???

OK, I get it. No, they kept it the entire time but that was because it was during the winter. They had asked if I wanted it back right away so I imagine it would have been back in a a week or so......

The photo attached is my current trailer wrong colour, wrong bike but you get the idea. Now painted black with Harley logo's . I know photos please. In Oz many trailers are Classic Industries who produce a range up to 600lt (21cu ft). The best part of my trailer is the integrated cooler. I have also had a top bag made to fit to the chrome work on the lid for the 'big' trips where one needs 'options' for different 'climes.

No problems going but stopping and parking are the biggest differences with gas station gutters at low speed the worst.

The decision is done and money half gone. I ordered an American Legend - Legend with CVO color match (Hot Citrus & Burnt Amber). I'm planning to ride out to pick it up in about 6 weeks. Bob Darling was very helpful and patient. If you're interested in a quality trailer to match your CVO, check out their web site:  http://www.american-legend.com/links.aspx  This is a case of getting what you pay for, so be prepared for sticker shock. Matching the current CVO bikes is a labor intensive process. Thanks for the input from you guys.

Congratulations on making what I believe is the right decision... You will love it!

Don't be concerned about the money... Just think of it as another accessory.

Of course we'll patiently wait (about 48 days) for pictures of your new rig to appear on this thread.  :2vrolijk_21:

Enjoy!

Enjoy. :2vrolijk_21:

I always hated putting the wife's blow dryer in the Tour Pak. All hotels have them anyway, but I still have to tote it around :)

Great to read you made a choice you sound so pleased with.  They are nice looking rigs.  Think of all the stuff she can buy on road trips now.
