Pulling a trailer

[steppenwolf]

While I don't pull a trailer I know a lot of if not all who do have some kinda fairing since they usually hit the road and put a few miles on every day.Many riders of "classic" bikes who use the Vetter pull trailers,while this is not a Vetter equipt bike it shows what pulling a trailer is like and why we should not be afraid of them.

I've been towing a home-built box trailer for 20 years on and off. I'd seen a courier company's bikes pulling trailers in London, in the late 80s, and decided to try that sometime. The day came when it made sense to do it and I built one.
At some point I'll pay some more attention to the box front of it and reduce the flat wind-drag area, as there's a natural V-line to follow where the chassis diverges. Can't do much about the back of it, though.

Make a trailer from a Terraplane body.

That would be excellent. I'd rather copy one than wreck an original.

I am not a hack person, but that has been an idea that I have had for quite some time and maybe the only reason I would own a Terraplane.

Just add a wheel to the left side of a Terraplane and a tongue to the front.

I just need to find one for the right price.

Of course. So simple.
