Death Valley Ride
Motorrad:
What bike is it going to be attached to?
motopunk:
i would use the same rear wheel with same tyre, like in the attached bike, so you could change it in the case of air loss from the rear tube :wink:

For this ride only it will be behind a 2000 Yamaha wr 400, then the Kawasaki's. 18" wheel on both, new wheel bearings in the trailer wheel and i will be carring a tube but it has a 4mil thick tube in it now. Doing some more chopping and welding tonight, hope to have more pics later.

the 4mm tubes are very good, but nothing is undestroyable... :wink: still excited to see your progress with it... 8-)

Almost done, just a couple of things to finish off. Weighing in at 79 lbs with the 10 lb action packer. My goal was to keep it under 80lbs, just by the skin of my teeth. Now to see how much all my crap will weigh loaded with fuel and water and food and tools and alllllll my camping stuff. Want to keep it under 200 lbs fully loaded. Moto-Mule can only say it is lighter and that is it. This is twice as heavy, but will tough out anything and it takes the same tube as my pull bike and common bearings.
Back to work! I leave Saturday morning :-o
