The Stinger Motorcycle Trailer can solve many of the problems you have if you need a trailer. One person can easily fold and unfold the Stinger Trailer in seconds. The trailer is low to the ground so you can load your bike by yourself, when you are done with the trailer it folds up small enough you can store it almost anywhere. If you have a topper or flat box lid, fold the Stinger up and hide it out of the way in your pickup bed, (folded height is 22 inches), and so it can stay hidden and out of the way when not in use, preventing any theft, and giving you more room at the campground or racetrack. When you are home, the compact size takes up minimum space in your garage.
The Stinger trailer's unique integrated hitch requires you to remove the ball from either the tow plate on your bumper or from the insert in your receiver hitch. The stem of the trailer hitch goes down through the hole in the tow plate or receiver hitch insert. You may have to have a bumper hitch stepdown or receiver hitch insert with a drop down to tow this trailer because it is so low to the ground. The maximum height that the tow plate or top of the receiver hitch insert can be is 12 inches; taller than that and you will need a step down to bring it to a level position.
The trailer has a width of 52 inches and is wide enough and stable enough to tow most bikes including the 1800 Honda, the Goldwing, And Honda Rune. The trailer is long enough for most bikes excluding long custom choppers.
