Chaos is the only camouflage that incompetence needs to operate at full capacity.

ALL the disadvantages of a car & NONE of the advantages of motorcycling. In fact most of the dangers with slow responses. :silly:

There seem to be a lot of German groups who have a Combo or Trailer rider with them as a Pack Mule. Seen it a lot on the IoM.
The pack mule goes motorway only & becomes the storage @ the event B)

Actually i think it's a good idea and well designed.

I like the spare wheel storage so you can have road tyres and serious off road tyres. Isn't it just a development of the sidecar and theve been used long before we were all around.

Imagine having this setup going to an ABR rally. Setoff on a long motroway cruise with all you want and need with you and with good road tyres.

Then get there and change to mud tyres for a day of fun..then change back to go home.

I like a lot of storage but there are some of us who think we should take a little as possible on a bike and roughing it makes us more of a man..if we are one that is.

Well i don't like roughing it and to those who like to why are you wearing closed face helmets with a goretex suit on a bike with a fairing. Why not go back to the waxed jacket days and then you can be truly at one with nature.

Know what you mean Mike BUT..........................
M.way trailer rules!....no 3rd+ lane, Low speeds.

You couldn't ride DEFENSIVELY with that lot up your arse.
Personally I ride M.ways, when I have to, in my OWN SPACE which I make by quick response to other traffics presence.
Not for me :whistle:

I don't think i would have one also but i like the concept of it.

Imagine if Ewan McBorman had used one....would we all have one now?

That's got to be a complete joke surely??? Who the hell would drag that monstrosity behind them!!! I put that in the same class as someone who owns a Goldwing Trike and pulls a colour coded trailer behind them :-D
