Re: "Got storage project"
Think a ball hitch setup would work on a spree? I'm worried it wouldn't let me lean enough. I've been thinking of fabbing something up for a parade
Re: "Got storage project"
Kepp the hitch low....will lean enough for a parade.....but only just......custom work is required for a hitch that will lean enough for constant use.....universal joint as shown by trafficjamz on page 1 of this thread is better suited for Spree....trial and error will determine actual finish heighth, but I'm thinking slightly lower than t-jamz.....consider using "HEIM" joints to fabricate your own design

Re: "Got storage project"
Greetings:
There is Another Way.
I've seen sportier versions pulled by BMWs and sportbikes, too. N-line appears to be a Cruiser-oriented brand, mimicking even the shape of the H-D saddlebags.
The hitch is designed to pivot up&down, and rotate side-to-side, but the plane of the trailer wheel stays with that of the bike, so the trailer "leans" with the bike. Simple, elegant and can be pulled virtually as fast as the bike can go.

Re: "Got storage project"
While that looks like it would work really well. I'll stick to the standard old design. Anyone know where I can get a swivel piece? I'm thinking of using a ball and a swivel
