I have only used one once. I went with my friends family down to mendota for a day of riding. We took the families old school bus converted into a camper. We loaded three bikes onto the trailer and put two quads in the back of the bus. Well we got about ten miles away from home when my brand new stay strap broke, from rubbing up against the bike in the middles skid plate. Bike ended up dragging for about 3 or 4 miles before the driver saw the handlebars dragging in the sideview mirror. Luckily it didnt get hit by any vehicles in the oncoming lane. The road grinded my handlebar all the way down to the top triple clamp and into the fork. luckily the whole bike didnt fall and drag on the road. The problem wasnt with the trailer I guess, it was more of the vehicle we took, and the driver. Needless to say I got stuck with the bill, at age 16, but it gave me the perfect opportunity to put a KX front end on my 98 KDX 200.
