r1crusher Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 If you can hook up with the cool kids, there will be some summer runs down south with a gang. You'll have to check in with the club president Uncle Puck to get on the patch member list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ludwb675 Posted March 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 I plan on doing some track days. Just novice stuff, no racing. Need the gear first and a way to get the bike there. My car can't tow. A guy I work with tracks so I'm going to try to tag along with him when possible. He has a 3 bike trailer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wantahertzdonut Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Welcome! In near to you as well, in Fairview.I'm usually out riding with friends when the weather cooperates and we'd welcome new riders too.I'm usually at the track and meet up with R1Crusher and RVTpilot when they go too. You won't have any trouble hitching a ride, somebody usually has room. Just be prepared to cuddle and give HJ's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ludwb675 Posted March 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Thanks all. I just found out my xB can tow 1100lbs (just not in the US). It's rated overseas for that much. I'm assuming it's all the US laws and liability claims that prevent them from putting a rating on it. Now i just need to find a trailer. Looking for a 4x8 or 5x8 flat trailer.

JStump Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Thanks all. I just found out my xB can tow 1100lbs (just not in the US). It's rated overseas for that much. I'm assuming it's all the US laws and liability claims that prevent them from putting a rating on it. Now i just need to find a trailer. Looking for a 4x8 or 5x8 flat trailer.Im sure its legal, it just may void the warrantee, I know my Mazda 3 is able to tow something like 1200lbs in Europe but my manual says no towing. I tow my bike on a HF trailer with no problems, might even tow 2 bikes on it down to Hocking Hills. Just load it evenly and you shouldn't have a problem. I can lift the tongue of mine with the bike loaded and move it around, thats how I know how much weight is on the tongue.And if your dealer ever questions why there is a trailer hitch, its for a "bike rack" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ludwb675 Posted March 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) And if your dealer ever questions why there is a trailer hitch, its for a "bike rack" My thoughts exactly. Anyone know a local place that sells trailers? The internet is worthless. Edited March 27, 2013 by ludwb675 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JStump Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 (edited) My thoughts exactly. Anyone know a local place that sells trailers? The internet is worthless.Harbor Freight, do a search on here and you will find a couple builds. Ends up being around $325 for all the parts to build one using the 20% off coupon found in sport rider magazine on the trailer and the $50 wheel chock for $25 coupon. Its a solid little trailer too that doesnt weigh a ton, maybe 300lbs at most so you car should have no problem with it.Edit: I found my thread from last spring http://www.ohioriders.net/showthread.php?t=92357&highlight=harbor+freight Edited March 27, 2013 by JStump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
