CSC Escapade 2010 model is my favorite in looks and towing. Pulls straight with no side to side tracking. Smooth on rough roadways having the torsion/air ride axles.
Interesting video. I have a Can Am RT 622 Trailer. Excellent trailer. Not popular outside Can Am trikes until the last few years. They stopped making them (2010 - 2015) due to production cost, but are in high demand now. They changed to the Can Am Freedom trailer. This model is not a s large and doesn't look as nice. I liked the Bushtec, almost bought one, and I have had 3 older/smaller Escapade models, but I LOVE my Can Am RT 622.
I own a Bushtec Quantum trailer. I bought it from the original owner. He rode his bike from Maine to Tennessee to purchase, set up, and ride the bike and trailer back home. It's a 2001, black with the stone guard bra, cooler, garment bag, and luggage rack. Not a mark on it as bikers take care of their gear. It's 26 sq ft of storage, ie. about 300lbs worth of gear. Suspension is torsion bars and air shocks. You cannot feel the trailer while riding. You can when stopping and starting, but that's to be expected. A pin and gimbel hitch is used instead of a towing ball hitch. This system allows the trailer to remain level and both wheels in constant contact with the tarmac. The trailer NEVER bounces or goes off track. Always steady and reliable. I paid $1700.00 for it 5 years ago. I never go on long rides without my Bushtec Trailer. Best $ ever spent for motorcycle travelling.
You got a good deal. They are hard to find used. I’ve been looking informally and not with much seriousness on and off for a year. I am going to look again as I am doing more and more longer trips on my Wing
@@wingandhog I was on a mission to find a Bushtec Trailer.... so I looked every day. I eventually found my trailer accidentally. My search took me to a small, obscure local Maine site where the ad was. If I hadn't been poking around, I never would have found it. Keep searching. You'll find one.
I've thought about a trailer from time to time, but I just never seem to need the extra space ...I just throw my old T-bag on the back seat and strap it down. Still, if I did ...it would be a Bushtec!
I was told a couple of years ago that the Lumina trailers were built in China and that the trailer store sells them. I do know that they come in a box and YOU get to assemble it and it does have metric Chinese bearings and hubs. as I helped a friend put his together.
I have a color matching Bushtec with my GL1800. It's a well built trailer and you can inflate the springs to match the load. Great product! 👍
