I have had a single bike trailer for 6 years now, it can carry a either a modern sports bike 200Kgs or one of my old one 100Kgs.

With a little one on I can tow at happily at 70mph, with the ST4 I restrict myself to no more than 60mph.

I have used it to transport other things, including a garden shed and stuff to the dump!

I now realise that I should have bought a 2+1 trailer. Thus I would be able to carry two little bikes or one big one with the same trailer, which is far more flexible.

Points to think about:

Try and avoid 8 inch wheels
Make sure that there is a sturdy loading ramp
Dont be surprised if a 1.3 car struggles with a big Ducati on the back

I would recommend Dave Cooper Trailers 01732-820082 and it will probably cost you about £250
