Panniers.......... or "Enduro" Trailer?

[tan650]

Hi All,

When off on the bike, I tend to stay in the same place for a day or two and then move on.

My trusty 650GS is, lets be honest, a mediocre trail bike at best. Even without luggage it can be a lump on the dirt. Add luggage to this and it gets even trickier.

I've seen a couple of people with custom trailers attached to the back of their bikes and this does appeal... The idea of being able to tour without the weight being up high and the additional aerodynamic drag that two boxes create is appealing - dumping the trailer at a camp ground and then going off exploring trails without the additional weight could be good (in my eyes)

Has anyone tried trail riding with a trailer? or have any experience with them?

I can make one fairly simply with a welder and pit bike parts



Anyone?

You need the lightweight version.
