moto-mule a cargo trailer to pull behind your dual sport motorcycle

Just goes to show how OLD I AM. I had to Wait for Mike's reply to find out what an FB Page Was!

So you're the only one that hasn't been assimilated in to the FB Borg?

It's just a matter of time.

I didn't really want an FB page but it's the only way I can communicate with my techy family.

Now I use my page to promote my blogs and small businesses that I am interested in,such as Mr.Bracket's.

Here is some great info from a customer in Washington State, he's the first I know of to go through the licensing process...

He also sent me some great pics, I'll post those up soon.

Here are Joe's pictures:

I don't think Texas has small trailer plates, I had a Uni-Go at one time but can't recall what kind of plate I had for it.

Put it together at work, hauled it home and mounted the box. Threw two bags of 7 1/2 chilled shot in it for the ride to work this morning (likely more weight than I will ever normally put in it).

I can tell it's back there, but it certainly doesn't upset things too much. I already feel confident enough with it that I'm going to take it to CroMag next week.

Your racks for the fuel containers is mounted upside down. They are designed to get the weight as low as possible. Don't feel bad, I did the same thing

Just remove them and flip them over. You are going to love that trailer...

We stood here in the shop and debated which way to put them on.

Maybe when I flip them over my Pelican 1430's will fit like I wanted; as it is now, there's not enough room for them.

Thank's for the heads up.

Lets see some pics when you get it done....

I think they're a little too big, I'm going to look for something else; small ammo can maybe.

The Mule leaves for Vermont tomorrow morning.

Yikes! Not my business, but as a fellow super ten pilot, all I can say is, how much gear do you need to haul?? That bike could carry all the supplies for a six man expedition by itself!

Mr. Bracket, do you/will you sell the adapters for a 950 Adventure separately?

I'm designing my own trailer but would like to see how you attach it to the Adventures and if I could purchase those.

Thanks

This Mule leaves Fri AM & will get tested on the Croydon Turnpike. Have a great ride. & hope to meet you at the rally!

The 3rd Cromag rally I attended was a blast, again (thanks Shrineclown)! The Mule performed perfectly. Caught some air & laughed 'cuz I felt the 3rd wheel hit. Made a few dents but the Action Packer smothed back out again. Sometimes I'd see the box deformed vs the lid but it would reseal once righted. Will replace with a Hardigg (thanks Canuman).

Mule was clean when I started then happily covered in water/mud & gear stayed dry. Thought I'd take the easy way back home but then couldn't resist the call of the dirt - hammered it & 2 cans of Heady Topper ruptured 'cuz I forgot I packed for the easy way home.

It was all epic! Thanks Mike!!

Laconic, maybe see you at Micatech or Recompence. Shrineclown said you were at Cromag.

Ha! I didn't ever lay eyes on you or hear there was another Mule there. :huh (I was on the road by the time you posted your departure or I would have tried to find you).

I put about 2400 miles on mine, much of it at highway speeds. Guys riding behind me said it tracks perfectly behind the bike and is stable as a rock. It tows at 85 as well as it does at lower speeds. It took until about half-way home before I quit looking behind me to see if it was still there.

Took off last weekend to clear my head, needed to put down the welding torch for a while....





Rode to a wedding on the other side of the mountains from me. Did some exploring on the way home I needed that break!

But it can't haul the specialized equipment I need to carry to certain specific events.

But always a pleasure to meet someone who knows what I need better than I do...

Thanks!

Dallara
