necessities and getting away from all of the everyday conveniences.\u00a0 Some skilled packers can get everything that they need for a trip into a pair of saddlebags (Click <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.denniskirk.com\/5308\/powersports\/how-to-pack-it-all-in-your-saddlebags\/\">Here<\/a> to see how it\u2019s done).\u00a0 For others though, standard motorcycle luggage just isn\u2019t enough, especially when riding two up on long trips.\u00a0 That\u2019s where pulling a motorcycle trailer comes into play.\u00a0 Having all of that extra luggage space in a motorcycle trailer can make your trip much more comfortable, if you\u2019re in to that sort of thing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a

style=\"text-align: justify;\">While having a motorcycle trailer can solve your packing woes, it\u2019s not as simple as throwing a hitch on your bike and hooking up.\u00a0 There are certain things to consider before you go that route, but if it works out for you, it will for sure change the way you go on motorcycle trips.\u00a0 Listed below are some of the things that you need to know before you embark on a trip with a trailer behind your bike.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The first thing to consider is if your bike can handle the extra load behind you.\u00a0 It\u2019s probably not the best idea to pull all of your camping gear in a trailer behind a 250cc sport bike.\u00a0 A full size cruiser or touring bike is a whole different story, though. \u00a0The extra power is nice, but how the power is delivered is what is important.\u00a0 Having low end torque is important to be able to get the bike up to speed without the added stress.\u00a0 You can achieve this a few ways including installing an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.denniskirk.com\/motorcycle\/camshafts\">aftermarket camshaft<\/a>, a gear change and fuel mapping.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There are a few different styles of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.denniskirk.com\/motorcycle\/hitches\">motorcycle hitches<\/a>.\u00a0 There are fixed hitches and then there are swivel hitches.\u00a0 Many riders feel that the swivel hitches ensures that the motorcycle can lean as deep as it needs to in the corners without affecting the trailer.\u00a0 While this is true, for most bikes with a fixed ball hitch, you can lean the bike to drag the pegs before you will max out the leaning capabilities of the hitch.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a

style=\"text-align: justify;\">Can your bike handle the load?\u00a0 Your bike\u2019s suspension and tires are going to be put under an even greater load with a trailer attached to your bike.\u00a0 When you are packing up your trailer, you should keep in mind that the tongue weight should be around 10-15% of the loaded trailer&#8217;s weight.\u00a0 With too much tongue weight, your motorcycle suspension and tires could be overloaded and you can risk a blowout.\u00a0 You\u2019ll also want to make sure your tires are always fully inflated.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Of course, with the added weight of the trailer behind you, your braking distance greatly increases.\u00a0 If you have a nice pulling trailer you can sometimes forget it\u2019s behind you but you\u2019ll know it\u2019s there if you have to stop in a hurry.\u00a0 The added weight will push you farther than you would normally go without the trailer.\u00a0 You will also want to make sure that you are stopping in a straight line.\u00a0 You run the risk of jackknifing if you have to stop with the trailer at an angle behind you.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It\u2019s a good idea to choose a trailer that is not much wider than the width of \u00a0your bike.\u00a0 This will allow you to continue riding on one side of the lane.\u00a0\u00a0 With a wider trailer, you have to ride more towards the center of the lane where the road nasties and oil like to hang out.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For all you riders already pulling trailers, what are some tips that you can share to help out the rest who are about to dive into this adventure?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong style=\"font-weight: 600; color: #444444;\"><span class='mb-center maxbutton-33-center'><span
