Common sense, cuteness, sense of humor and intelligence aren't usually found in humans anymore you rock young lady.....sure wish I was thirty years younger....70 aint that old though.
Having a trailer opens up more opportunities as you said and it doesn't make you any less of a biker. I've been riding more years than most bikers I've met over the years and I have trailered a fair amount due to constrained time off from work and family obligations. A friend and I trailered from Pa out to Utah non-stop, covered 1400 miles in 5 days, rode great highways (Utah 12 was my best road ever) and saw amazing sights in the 5 national parks out there, then straight through back to Pa. We used a week of vacation and got some great seat time without being exhausted by the ride out and back. You might also consider the fly and ride option. That same friend moved to Oregon, I flew, rented a full dresser, and we did a week on the coast hightway down through northern Calif and circled back inland. Another great trip which otherwise wouldn't have been possible due to work and family obligations at the time. Enjoy your journey on two wheels, never stop learning, and do what works for you and your life. Stay safe out there, welcome to the lifestyle.
Great buy. Trailers are so multi purpose for hauling anything really. Especially on those rainy or wet days. Not sure if theft is a big deal in your area, but something to consider with your first trailer is a good ball hitch lock. Not just a simple paddle lock. An actual ball style lock. I had a 24ft trailer stolen that I did finally get back. Ball lock that can't be cut off was my best purchase hahaha. You are a beautiful biker babe. Love the mix of riding and seeing you dolled up. Lip stick is dope. Cheers.
That is a nice trailer, one word of advice is cross your safety chains, that way if the trailer comes loose from the ball the chains will catch it and you will still have control of it.
Very nice Trailer you have Meg.. I bought a 2014 Easy Haul 7X14 V-Nose, dual Axel , Enclosed Trailer. Used for both Snowmobiles Motorcycles. Has ramp up front and rear. Side Man Door, and a fuel door on the side to fuel the machines with out taking them out of the trailer. Also Two over head lights inside for night time use inside the trailer. We live up North on the East Coast also. Don't let theses others tell you, you have to ride everywhere. That's just crazy. Let me see them ride motorcycles with 4" of Snow covering the road for miles and miles and miles. And 5 degrees outside . 🤣🤔🙄 Glad you bought a Trailer it will come in very handy for multiple purposes and things. Congrats Meg, keep doing what your doing. Your doing just fine. 👍👍🇺🇸
I think your trailer selection was good, plus i LOVE the leather pants😍❤😎. I find having a trailer gives me peace of mind because i can haul extra parts for my bike which allows repairs on the road in case the need arises. plus its easier to secure my baby when in an unfamiliar location. thanks for the post.
Nice choice in trucks too. Great trailer buy. When i finally pick up an enclosed trailer, i plan to find tandem axel with break assist. Help the truck out with the load in the mountain crossings. Great videos. Ride safe doll.
I notice It’s not only NYers that use the Maine trailer registration loop hole. Lol I’m In lake George NY and the Americade roles through here in the summer. We have lots of amazing riding. One doesn’t appreciate it though when it’s your backyard
@@megsmotorcyclejourney If you started in the village of lake George (Canada St) head north up route 9n along the west side of the lake into Hague. Then you can either head west on ST RT 8 into the Brant lake area or continue north on 9N into Ticonderoga where you can go around the North End of Lake George and then head South on ST RT 4 and come down along Lake Champlain where maybe, Just maybe you’ll see the Lake Monster “Champ” Then you can head into White Hall which is the Big Foot sighting capital (true story) So many great scenic roads. Also if you did come during Americade, there are guided tours available
Depending on weather and other paths intended, either the Poconos in Eastern PA or the "PA Grand Canyon" in North-Central PA provide some good diversionary roads on the way to North-West NY. If you're in a hurry and don't want to take side-routes Rt. 15 runs pretty fast and busy along the Susquehanna but will provide a few of those river views some of us enjoy. I'm sure you've been told Horseshoe falls has great photo-ops on the Canadian side, if you remember your passport to get back across and if COVID 19 doesn't prevent crossing. Fun fact, My wife and I years ago stayed in a Hotel on the Canadian side and hardly even noticed the cross-over. On the way back, all cars were pulled over and checked. We were ready and all, but I asked the guy "What-if?" and he said it's not our security's job to stop people headed out for any reason, only to make sure they are citizens or authorized to travel when coming this direction. Have fun!
Hey Meg, That is a very nice trailer and a good investment. You won't believe how handy that will be in the future. As always looking good 😊. Ride Hard and stay Safe!
Very nice looking trailer it will be awesome for your car wash business and the bikes good for you great purchase thanks for sharing great ride be safe and take care
Great vid Meg....thats a nice trailer....it will be really handy for many things....be nice to take bike to shop if you have a problem to....ride safe...!!
Hi Meg, you’re a true rider. Don’t listen to the people on here that say your not. I have been riding for over 50 years and ride most all the places I have been, but there are times when a trailer is needed. I have ridden every state in the United States including Alaska, but not Hawaii. You’re doing a great job of progressing with your riding.
Not sure if anyone has mentioned it, but the New Hampshire White Mountains has some of the best riding on the East Coast. Also Laconia NH Bike week will be held in June.
Holy killer britches my dear! Glad you found a great trailer definitely gives you the options to get to destinations when you don't have the luxury of time to be able to ride. Been riding now for over 50 years and wouldn't give it up for the world. Enjoy, be safe and don't let anyone intimidate you, do your thing!
You are evolving quickly! I'll bet that in less than a year, you'll be ready to upgrade to a 2500 series pickup truck and a 26 foot toy hauler. It opens up a whole new world of motorcycling. Congratulations!
If you are looking for additional places to ride that aren't too far from where you are, check out the many many roads in West Virginia. BEAUTIFUL and curvy roadways in that state.
Nice trailer. I use the Lock N Load system on my trailer. Make sure you check the tightness on the mounting bolts before removing the bike from the chocks. Mine came loose, jammed up in the fender. Cost 800 bucks to replace it.
I’m in Northeast Tennessee and we have some great rides! Highway 421 “The Snake” goes from Bristol to Shady Valley and then to Mountain City. You can visit the Country Store in Shady Valley where all the bikers gather. All the roads out of Shady Valley are great rides.
Just stumbled on your channel. I have been riding for over 20 yrs and my wife rides her own Harley for the past 6 yes. I truly enjoy watching your videos showing the good and bad as you learn and progress in riding. Living in the desert SouthWest we get to ride pretty much year round. Ride safe!
Hi Megan, I enjoyed this long ride through some beautiful country side, and the trailer looks perfect for your considerable needs! It's beyond me, with two businesses and three children, how you fit it all in! Wonder Woman comes to mind!
Just recently found the channel. Enjoying it very much. Been riding for 25+ years and I am jealous of your advanced rider training. I have always wanted to do that. Great job
I can't live without a cargo trailer! I have a 6x12 for my company and it fits 3 bikes no problem. I use it for track days with 2 bikes and all our gear. A trailer is far better than a pickup truck or van because you only use it when you need it. No insurance, registration, etc,etc..... It's the most valuable thing you can own! Bike to dealer in rain/snow? No problem! Pick up a dead bike? No problem! Impromtu Camp/Bike outing? No Problem! I will never be without a trailer! I am doing a USA solo adventure this coming summer on my Triumph Tiger 1200 XCX and plan on documenting the entire trip. I am fortunate enough to have my own company and zero responsibilities!! I can do business from my bike and ride where I want, wherever I want and whenever I want. My life SUCKS!!! LOL! Great video Meg! Peace! 👍👌✌🖖🤙👋
I bought a nice 6x12 trailer for hauling my bike. It’s black and orange with a silver stripe. The guy I bought it from bought it to trailer his bike to Sturgis, and he bought it from a guy that had bought it new to trailer his bike to Sturgis. I’m not planning to go to Sturgis (yet), but I will eventually. The trailer is well outfitted with aluminum wheels and bigger tires than stock, and the floor has been covering with a spray-on bed liner. Yeah, I’d rather ride than trailer the bike, but I like having the option to haul it to a destination. If someone thinks I’m less of a biker for that, it’s their problem, not mine.
Hi Megan nice trailer smart move. Places to travel.mt Davis pa is a historic ride.iys the highest point in pa 3213ft high.theirs a fire tower observation deck that looks out to pa and md.plus a lake near by in springs pa. This is near Grantsville md and Salisbury pa.a.ish area. And good places to eat in Grantsville md.penn alps for one.gify shop etc.so it's a day ride not to far from you .so I think you'd like it. Unless you've been their.Rich.Have fun!!!
The new bike 🏍️ trailer looks great 👍 Your fullface helmet is really cool 😎 and definately would be warmer riding. Your new black leather pants & jacket look really great together 😍.
Yeah not good riding in snow ice roads and with you're trailer you can go camping in summer looking forward to seeing you ride in different states brilliant videos Meg's 👍👍
Just came across your channel.. have watched 3 of your videos so far and hooked already.. keep up the good work & keep doing your own thing/style 👍🏴
Omg! I would love to take a class with Motorman! You can never have enough training! The most excellent riding is the Tennessee/North Carolina mountains. It’s euphoric! Safe travels to you and camera man!
You should always shoot cell phone vertical in landscape mode, so that when you use it in a youTube video, it WILL NOT have the pillar bars on both sides.
@srkcycles has the best straps to secure the bikes while trailering. They are called tank straps. You can find them on their website or on Amazon. My advice for a trailer would be go bigger than you need now cause you'll end up getting a touring bike eventually 😉
Add a couple windows with screens and use it to sleep in while in sturgis. Get a garage door screen for the rear door and u camp off the ground and out of the rain
Trailer looks great, there are lots of nice roads to ride in ny and nj like rt 97 into Delaware and rt 519 in nj and rt 218 and 9w and bear mountain area and many more
Make sure if you are hauling your motorcycle in the trailer and your motorcycle has a key fob with a alarm system to leave it on the bike are your alarm will be going off in the trailer
Those who say true riders don't trailer cant afford the tow vehicle & trailer and the time away to enjoy riding. Just my thoughts. You will end up moving up to a 7 X 14 tandem for more room & after your 1st tire blow out
Ok , now that I finished watching I can finish commenting 😁 That is an Awesome looking trailer !!!! And Really cool of Mr Gibson to shoot you other listings , I would agree that he's a Standup kind've guy 👍 Now a little advice in case you don't know , but when you strap the bikes in , make sure you Never hook any straps from the handlebars or triple tree down to your tie down rings as that will compress the forks , and can blow out your fork seals . Always strap around the lower part of the fork tubes , so you're not compressing the forks . Sean from SRKcycles blog, has some really nice straps that he recommends , you can look him up on TH-cam. Just wanna say , Another Really enjoyable video Meg, oh and before I forget , Cool full face helmet and nice Real leather pants too 😉 You know I'm thinking that you could rock some Evel Kinevel leather apparel , ( fitted pants ) and the jacket , and Whoa it would look Awesome , and you would get the added benefit of being way more visible , and making a Kinevel suit look REALLY , uh well Hot!!! 😁 I've been riding almost 30 years , and I'm as huge believer in being as visible as possible , it has saved my butt quite a few times . It's kind've like when you go running or cycling , bright colors and reflective goodies , so as to help with dumbass drivers not paying attention . Ride safe , and can't wait till your next video 😊
& u can set the trailer up to sleep in, my 12ftr. sleeps 5 & hauls my harley (only 1 bike fits in 12ftr.) when it breaks down or we use as a chase vehicle on big rides.
Meg, not sure when your conference is, but you'll enjoy the Americade rally if you can include it, hopefully this year's event takes place June 7th thru 12th. Ride safe, nice trailer!👍 Ps. I think your calendar would make great wall art!
Hi Meg. Here is my opinion on a couple things I’ve heard you talk on in your videos. Don’t worry what people say about putting a bike on a trailer or what you wear for that matter. You do what works for you. Don’t be stereotyped into you can only ride and can only wear leather when you ride. People customize their bikes to be different and personal. Biker freedom doesn’t end there. Your videos are great!! Thanks for being there.
Hi Meg. Nice to see you riding in sunshine over there. We are in Lockdown here in England and the weather is cold and very wet. Don`t take any notice of riders who criticize you for using a trailer, it makes perfect sense in some circumstances. Just to echo what others have said.....you are leaning too far forward and would feel a world of difference with bars closer to you. I don`t mean that as a criticism in any way but I am sure it would benefit your back in the long run. Love the video, nice trailer too. Ride safe.
ur videos r so awesome, glad to c u riding, love ur bike and the color choice, i like how the trailer matches the truck, buy the way the leather pants r nice, but u look good in both kinds,, really lov the ones u have on at the trailer reveil, hope u have fun, and stay safe out there, we r looking into getting a toy hauler this yr to make long trips, keep that rubber on the road, :) ;)
You never tell us about your bike. I live in Texas and like you have newly found the joy of motorcycle riding. I bought at first a Honda Monkey for fun and then loved it so much bought a Kawasaki 1500 vulcan. I immediately new it was to big and heavy for me as a new rider. So I went to Harley and bought a 2020 1200 Iron and love it. Let people know..NEVER buy or ride a bike you are not comfortable with. The bike community is GREAT. LISTEN to the ole riders. There old riders for a REASON. I'm retired U.S. Army. Starting my own motorcycle journey. Listen...and learn. Be well.
@@megsmotorcyclejourney Hi Megan, tell James Gilliland to go back and watch a few of your previous vids where you traded in your Sportster for the Low Rider S. At first I thought it was a Super Glide and then watched until I saw the switch. Make it like HIDE and SEEK to identify your ride. I already had a trailer with a Torq-Flex axle for a previous business. When I retired , I bought a 37 ft. diesel "toy hauler" motor home with a hydraulic lift tail....no ramp to contend with. It can hold 4 scoots and sleeps up to 6. It made it to Sturgis in 2016. If you make it to Houston, TX. you can ride my WideGlide....the "WILDER ROSE". Bring a friend and we can make it a "business / rally " trip...and write off the expense. I will keep in touch....JwgK
Another good video,interesting as usual.I live in Ohio so have thought of trailer and you bought a nice one.I really enjoy your videos your voice calm and clear.It is really neat seeing new biker so enthusiasm!
Awesome trailer, for an awesome motorcycle rider! I is apparent that you like to stay fit. Can you do a video on how fitness plays a part in your motorcycle riding, and improves your quality of life?
Common sense, cuteness, sense of humor and intelligence aren't usually found in humans anymore you rock young lady.....sure wish I was thirty years younger....70 aint that old though.
Aww thank you! I so appreciate the kind words and you following along on the journey.
That was the first trailer I've ever seen that made my jaw drop :)
It’s pretty nice- a home away from home for my bike

Wow- such amazing stories and great suggestions! I appreciate you sharing and watching my channel. 🙂
nothing wrong with a trailer when you live up north. Dig the full face. Always love when you refer to "cameraman". keep the great videos coming!
Thank you! He likes that name as well 😜

I notice It’s not only NYers that use the Maine trailer registration loop hole. Lol
I’m In lake George NY and the Americade roles through here in the summer. We have lots of amazing riding. One doesn’t appreciate it though when it’s your backyard
Any great roads we should hit?
@@megsmotorcyclejourney
If you started in the village of lake George (Canada St) head north up route 9n along the west side of the lake into Hague. Then you can either head west on ST RT 8 into the Brant lake area or continue north on 9N into Ticonderoga where you can go around the North End of Lake George and then head South on ST RT 4 and come down along Lake Champlain where maybe, Just maybe you’ll see the Lake Monster “Champ”
Then you can head into White Hall which is the Big Foot sighting capital (true story) So many great scenic roads.
Also if you did come during Americade, there are guided tours available
Depending on weather and other paths intended, either the Poconos in Eastern PA or the "PA Grand Canyon" in North-Central PA provide some good diversionary roads on the way to North-West NY.
If you're in a hurry and don't want to take side-routes Rt. 15 runs pretty fast and busy along the Susquehanna but will provide a few of those river views some of us enjoy.
I'm sure you've been told Horseshoe falls has great photo-ops on the Canadian side, if you remember your passport to get back across and if COVID 19 doesn't prevent crossing.

Yeah not good riding in snow ice roads and with you're trailer you can go camping in summer looking forward to seeing you ride in different states brilliant videos Meg's 👍👍
You are simply “Living the Dream!!”. Do not let others think differently.
Aww thank you! I try to live every day to it’s fullest.
Just came across your channel.. have watched 3 of your videos so far and hooked already.. keep up the good work & keep doing your own thing/style 👍🏴
Aww thank you!!
You just drove all your male viewers crazy with that outfit. Lol. Bless you girl👍
Thank you! Bless you as well and ride safe. 🙂

@@megsmotorcyclejourney life is good ❤😘
your right we on the west cost in calif. are lucky with the weather . would like to go to the Florida keys. maybe this late spring .
Girl u are true rider u are one outstanding woman.
Aww thank you! I appreciate the support. Take care!
Omg! I would love to take a class with Motorman! You can never have enough training! The most excellent riding is the Tennessee/North Carolina mountains. It’s euphoric! Safe travels to you and camera man!
Thank you! I really appreciate that. 🙂
You should always shoot cell phone vertical in landscape mode, so that when you use it in a youTube video, it WILL NOT have the pillar bars on both sides.
Agreed. Sorry about that. Still learning and will try to remember.
Northern Michigan is beautiful to ride!!
If you ever come up let me know I have a bunch of property 40 miles from mackinaw island
Everywhere you ride is beautiful!!! I live in Vermont and found a lot of beautiful rides to do!!
@srkcycles has the best straps to secure the bikes while trailering. They are called tank straps. You can find them on their website or on Amazon. My advice for a trailer would be go bigger than you need now cause you'll end up getting a touring bike eventually 😉
Hahaha that is a great piece of advice. Thanks for the suggestion!
Add a couple windows with screens and use it to sleep in while in sturgis. Get a garage door screen for the rear door and u camp off the ground and out of the rain
Thank you! Great suggestion.
You have to experience Daytona Bike week at least once as a rider. Good times. Lots of amazing roads in North Georgia as well.
I’m seriously considering it!!!
Trailer looks great, there are lots of nice roads to ride in ny and nj like rt 97 into Delaware and rt 519 in nj and rt 218 and 9w and bear mountain area and many more
Thank you for the suggestions!
You been goin hard meg keep winnin 🙌🙌🙌
Aww thank you! I’m learning from the best!
Heartiest congratulations Megs.... Wise decision btw 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you! I’m happy with it.
Make sure if you are hauling your motorcycle in the trailer and your motorcycle has a key fob with a alarm system to leave it on the bike are your alarm will be going off in the trailer
Good tip! Appreciate that.
Nice work Young Lady....lighten up and crack some jokes Meg. You don't want to be "all business" all the time.
Lol. I get the opposite all the time. That I’m not a serious rider and my content is crap. 🤷🏼♀️
Those who say true riders don't trailer cant afford the tow vehicle & trailer and the time away to enjoy riding. Just my thoughts. You will end up moving up to a 7 X 14 tandem for more room & after your 1st tire blow out
Thank for the feedback!
In focus or not I will still watch Hot Meg, I would like to go to Sturgis but I'm not getting any takers yet from Florida. Like the trailer
Thank you!! Appreciate you following along on my journey.
Trailer to NC. Stay at Ironhorse in Robbinsville. Awesome riding in that area.
Thank you! I might. 😊
Ok , now that I finished watching I can finish commenting 😁 That is an Awesome looking trailer !!!! And Really cool of Mr Gibson to shoot you other listings , I would agree that he's a Standup kind've guy 👍
Now a little advice in case you don't know , but when you strap the bikes in , make sure you Never hook any straps from the handlebars or triple tree down to your tie down rings as that will compress the forks , and can blow out your fork seals . Always strap around the lower part of the fork tubes , so you're not compressing the forks . Sean from SRKcycles blog, has some really nice straps that he recommends , you can look him up on TH-cam. Just wanna say , Another Really enjoyable video Meg, oh and before I forget , Cool full face helmet and nice Real leather pants too 😉 You know I'm thinking that you could rock some Evel Kinevel leather apparel , ( fitted pants ) and the jacket , and Whoa it would look Awesome , and you would get the added benefit of being way more visible , and making a Kinevel suit look REALLY , uh well Hot!!! 😁 I've been riding almost 30 years , and I'm as huge believer in being as visible as possible , it has saved my butt quite a few times . It's kind've like when you go running or cycling , bright colors and reflective goodies , so as to help with dumbass drivers not paying attention .
Ride safe , and can't wait till your next video 😊
Thank you! I greatly appreciate all the suggestions and feedback! Thank you for following along.
& u can set the trailer up to sleep in, my 12ftr. sleeps 5 & hauls my harley (only 1 bike fits in 12ftr.) when it breaks down or we use as a chase vehicle on big rides.
Yes! Great thoughts.
google the HILLBILLY TRIANGLE MOTORCYCLE RIDE and go through the NADA Tunnel in central Kentucky. It includes Historic towns and The Red River Gorge.
Thanks for the idea!! I’ll check it out.
Meg, not sure when your conference is, but you'll enjoy the Americade rally if you can include it, hopefully this year's event takes place June 7th thru 12th. Ride safe, nice trailer!👍
Ps. I think your calendar would make great wall art!
Thank you! I did save one for just that.
Hi Meg. Here is my opinion on a couple things I’ve heard you talk on in your videos. Don’t worry what people say about putting a bike on a trailer or what you wear for that matter. You do what works for you. Don’t be stereotyped into you can only ride and can only wear leather when you ride. People customize their bikes to be different and personal. Biker freedom doesn’t end there. Your videos are great!! Thanks for being there.
Hi Meg. Nice to see you riding in sunshine over there. We are in Lockdown here in England and the weather is cold and very wet. Don`t take any notice of riders who criticize you for using a trailer, it makes perfect sense in some circumstances. Just to echo what others have said.....you are leaning too far forward and would feel a world of difference with bars closer to you. I don`t mean that as a criticism in any way but I am sure it would benefit your back in the long run. Love the video, nice trailer too. Ride safe.
Thank you and I’m doing just that with my bars. Ride safe!
Nice hair Goldie locks & I guess the trailer is good too.! 😀
Thank you! Temporary extensions.
Now...that’s really tight 👌
Thank you! Appreciate that. 🙂
Good luck with your purchase, keep a basic tool set on board and some motorcycle fluids and you'll be all set
Great suggestion! Thank you, I will.
home is where your stuff is !! buy the trailer
Thank you!!
Very nice trailer prime condition Meg's 😀
Make a weekend trip to ride Skyline Drive and Blue Ridge Parkway. Very scenic and curvy!!
Yes! I went last year. Very cool 😎
ur videos r so awesome, glad to c u riding, love ur bike and the color choice, i like how the trailer matches the truck, buy the way the leather pants r nice, but u look good in both kinds,, really lov the ones u have on at the trailer reveil,
hope u have fun, and stay safe out there,
we r looking into getting a toy hauler this yr to make long trips,
keep that rubber on the road, :) ;)
You should! Best of luck! I appreciate the kind words and you following along!
Sedona is a top place to ride. After a seminar in Scottsdale one year I headed up to Sedona and rented a RK Classic. Highly recommend
Thank you for the suggestion!
You always rock some hot gear n clothes, glad you found your trailer of choice...keep rocking...rode a week ago was 34° in my area of Ohio
Wow- that’s about the temp here now. I’m still riding but it’s not my favorite
You never tell us about your bike. I live in Texas and like you have newly found the joy of motorcycle riding. I bought at first a Honda Monkey for fun and then loved it so much bought a Kawasaki 1500 vulcan. I immediately new it was to big and heavy for me as a new rider. So I went to Harley and bought a 2020 1200 Iron and love it. Let people know..NEVER buy or ride a bike you are not comfortable with. The bike community is GREAT. LISTEN to the ole riders. There old riders for a REASON. I'm retired U.S. Army. Starting my own motorcycle journey. Listen...and learn. Be well.
I will make sure to spend some more time talking about my bike in an upcoming video. Thank you for the suggestion.
@@megsmotorcyclejourney Hi Megan, tell James Gilliland to go back and watch a few of your previous vids where you traded in your Sportster for the Low Rider S. At first I thought it was a Super Glide and then watched until I saw the switch. Make it like HIDE and SEEK to identify your ride. I already had a trailer with a Torq-Flex axle for a previous business. When I retired , I bought a 37 ft. diesel "toy hauler" motor home with a hydraulic lift tail....no ramp to contend with. It can hold 4 scoots and sleeps up to 6. It made it to Sturgis in 2016. If you make it to Houston, TX. you can ride my WideGlide....the "WILDER ROSE". Bring a friend and we can make it a "business / rally " trip...and write off the expense. I will keep in touch....JwgK
@@jameskrivitsky9715 thank you for the suggestions! Sounds like you’ve got a great vehicle there! Thank you for watching!
Another good video,interesting as usual.I live in Ohio so have thought of trailer and you bought a nice one.I really enjoy your videos your voice calm and clear.It is really neat seeing new biker so enthusiasm!
Awesome trailer, for an awesome motorcycle rider! I is apparent that you like to stay fit. Can you do a video on how fitness plays a part in your motorcycle riding, and improves your quality of life?
💯% awesome idea.
Good choice not buying the one with rotted floor, bad rust problem and the floor will most likely collapse on you.
Yes!!! It was absolutely concerning.
Nice looking setup⚘⚘⚘😻🍹
Thank you! I like it.
nice trailer. Come in handy and not just for motorcycles.
Yes!! That’s the plan.
