Andy, Making the suspension softer means it will bottom out easier & that's not good. There are aftermarket variable ratio upgrade kits available for the...
This is just an fyi thing. I weigh 205 pounds. I run the back suspension on 1 and the only problems I have it, yes, it bottoms out on big bumps I don't see...
Arne Actually the trailer itself has no suspension. When you carry a bike the suspension of the bike is used to dampen the bumps. From my short (400 miles)...
I have a tear drop trailer. The utility trailer I used as a base has tires rated for max inflation of 65 pounds. It is rated for 1,800# and the whole trailer...
Arne - Excellent! Thanks for the info BUT..... you can't drop "I have a tear drop trailer. The utility trailer I used as a base...." and leave it at that! ...
Mel, no problem with that. This last weekend we decided to go ahead and get the wife her own scoot... We had been looking at Reflexes, but she said that if she...

I was just wondering if anyone has seen the ventures riders site? I have noticed that site is very colorful and you can add smilies and other stuff to your...
Rode my bike to work for the first time yesterday. Dropped it at a stop sign a few blocks from work. I could not pick it up, even though I tried to do it...
Quite nice. Wish there were more pics of the inside. Most be quite a bit in there if you spent 60 mights in there. I'm going to ping you off list with some...
I love it. One more reason I lament having sold my house and moved to an apartment. Can't do stuff like that without tools and a space. R ... -- Reinaldo in...
Sherry - First of all, in all probability, you can pick up the scoot. Once you are shown the correct way to do it, it does not take much strength. I'm a little...
Sherry, Please don't let this get you down. My husband always said there are two kinds of riders...those that have dropped their bikes and those that will...
Dear Sherry, You've got both from me. You actually can raise the bike, but there is some technique in it. I've seen a 110 lb 5'1" woman raise an 800 lb bike ...
When I first looked the pictures of the trailer in the bag what I saw was a accident about to happen when you first try to ride the bike upon the trailer and...
Sherry, hang in there, you'll have confidence very soon!! It is very depressing to drop the bike. I dropped mine after my first ride outside my neighborhood,...
Well Gerald I can tell you this, you are only partly correct. When my buddy loaned me his trailer it came with 3 stools to place your feet (the 4th stool would...
... Thanks for the encouragement you riders. I needed that so much. I just wanted to cry and cry yesterday. I had my Tom come to work and drive the bike...
Sherry, Your weakness is in your left side. Do you think you are overcompensating and intentionally leaning the bike to the right? By doing this, you maybe...
Dave, Glad to see that the cartop carrier looks like it will work for you. For anyone else considering a TIB, I have photos of the stock unit along with the...
I use a couple of small foldable stepstools to put my feet on when I ride up onto the TIB. Using these with the chock makes it a very easy procedure to load...
I have a utility trailer that tilts. I put a block under that back, so it can only tilt halfway to the ground. It is a straight ride on for me. by the time my...
And if I'd listened to Alan and done what he told me to do, I wouldn't have ended up falling on my ass! Dave "DOC" Bond Roseland NJ 2002 Silver Wing "Sandy" ...
Prices for production models start at 4k... and go to 12k for a fully loaded one..... nicest thing is it got me off the ground and I sleep in my own bed every...
Sherry, remember not to rush, there is no due date. Remember that the Wing is a big bike, and its ambitious to learn on such a big bike. But any rider will...
Sherry, Check this out. http://www.pinkribbonrides.com/dropped.html It's got exactly what you need to know. You are doing great. Dennis New Orleans On 5/1/06,...
