Here's the question. If this trailer is for motorcycle hauling only, do you think i need any type of suspension on this trailer? I mean the bike does have it's own suspension after all.
one bike or 2 suspension yes,but not so much that it dozent work.tip you can take or leave make it low and wield in a bracket to apply a tie down across the swing arm.I find it works very well Ron luck
