A trailer ON a trailer?  Now you're just asking for ridicule.   

I know......  But if you break down pulling your trailer behind your bike and you go to the expense of having something around to drag your bike home it would be nice if that something could drag them both home.

Absolutely.  That was a big problem when I broke down a couple years ago while my Bushtec was in tow.  Having to leave the Bushtec on the side of the road is not a good idea imo.

I know, I see trailers by the side of the road with one wheel missing and wonder if the boat, jet ski or lawn tractor will still be there when the person gets back.  Hate that feeling of being in a Hitchcock movie, nothing in any direction and feeling utterly alone with no out but pushing.  And I actually have seen a trailer on a trailer on the way to Sturgis.  I figure it's their stuff, they can get it there however they want to.

The Kendon is wide enough for both. not sure how strapping the Bushtec down would work.

Width would be my only concern.  If it'll physically fit I'd fab whatever else was necessary from there.

Ok, interesting information.  Sold the old trailer a year or so ago because it was no longer satisfactory to its potential need.  Got used so rarely though that there's been no rush to replace.  Something like this that could occupy so much less floor space during its long stretches of inactivity has to become a real consideration. 

FWIW a sales weenie guy from Kendon told me yesterday that the trailer and bagger would fit side by side. He answered so quickly and with so little time to hear what I was asking I didn't believe he really knew though.  Pretty sure he was agreeing just to agree.  Now I believe it .

You believe it because you read it on the internet?
The Bushtec's are not any wider than a bagger, and not any wider than an American Legend.
My American Legend fits on mine with my Roadglide beside it with no problem. How do I know this, because I loaded them both up yesterday to see if they would fit.
Boy do I have a lot to do. Couldn't take pictures as the camera is on the fritz.

Excellent.  Thanks Mike .  That's confirmation worth working from.  Now will have to start watching for bargains.....

I agree, it is a great little trailer.  Found mine on Craig's list for $1300.   Had a friend in Tennessee go look at it and gave it the thumbs up.  It certainly was worth the drive to get it.  I was concerned about pulling it empty for 8 hours.  Thought it would bounce all over the place but it rode great.  I bought a used collapsible 30" wide aluminum handicap ramp because the Kendon ramp has suicidal tendencies.
