Title: Single wheeled trailer -
Post by: spanner on May 26, 2015, 02:10:42 PM: Howdy,

I saw that amazing trailer at Toowoomba Rally and was wanting to talk to the bloke who made it.

I have had a look in the trailer section but can not find any reference to it.

Any one got any leads for me?

Cheers,

I'd like to stick a flat-bed one behind the van to carry my FJR.
Google 'single wheel trailer' for lots of choices/ideas.

The issue is with the lights and rego plate but if the trailer lights/plate meet motorcycle ADRs then rego should be ok. http://www.google.com.au/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=single%20wheel%20trailer%20for%20motorcycle&source=web&cd=11&ved=0CDMQFjAAOAo&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tmr.qld.gov.au%2F~%2Fmedia%2FSafety%2FVehicle%2520standards%2520and%2520modifications%2FVehicle%2520standards%2FVehicle%2520standards%2520instructions%2FVSIm20t50unigobrandnamesingleaxlemotorcycletrailers.pdf&ei=-vdjVeX1Govx8gWDyoOACg&usg=AFQjCNG2ta1y5K7A562-qD-J3tOfyPcXGQ&sig2=L404vF_lx1JwZQu7q7uSUQ&bvm=bv.93990622,d.dGc&cad=rjt (http://www.google.com.au/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=single%20wheel%20trailer%20for%20motorcycle&source=web&cd=11&ved=0CDMQFjAAOAo&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tmr.qld.gov.au%2F~%2Fmedia%2FSafety%2FVehicle%2520standards%2520and%2520modifications%2FVehicle%2520standards%2FVehicle%2520standards%2520instructions%2FVSIm20t50unigobrandnamesingleaxlemotorcycletrailers.pdf&ei=-vdjVeX1Govx8gWDyoOACg&usg=AFQjCNG2ta1y5K7A562-qD-J3tOfyPcXGQ&sig2=L404vF_lx1JwZQu7q7uSUQ&bvm=bv.93990622,d.dGc&cad=rjt)

From memory it became an extension of the car as the wheel pivoted and, even though I never got to see the attachment, think it was like a big hinge between car and trailer:
