I have a related question about motorcycle trailers. I've been having problems with mine because it usually wobbles at speeds between 60-70mph. Could it be just bad tires or there's something wrong with the balance?

Hi Leo,If you weigh the bike and trailer the tounge weight should be 10% of the total \. If the trailer and bike weighs 800lbs, the tounge weight should be 80 lbs.
Easy way to check tounge weight is with a bathroom scale. If the weight is wrong , move the bike forward or backward to get weight right.

So, trailer wobble, bouncing, security, price, parking, all these factors to consider. Sorry but Out West its all resolved by a Pick Up ! Lowered 2wd, hooks always behind the seat to help out other bikers. And dogs & single ladies love trucks too.. Once a truck owner, always a truck owner. Im trying to help you -RT
True that is Fredintoon . Circumstances have kept me in a pickup by choice. Minivan & kids are long in the past. But so is my old "family" 70 Chev long bed.. Just saying how securely a truck hauls bikes, two even. I'd go nuts worrying about my precious metal XS bouncing around back there where I couldn't even yell out to it.
