When you lock up the saftey cables to your tow hitch you should be doing it criss cross so if you trailor comes unhookd some how the trailor will fall into the cables like a cradle.
It makes since what you are saying but it would have been nice if they included that info in the manual for this trailer. The manual says nothing about criss crossing cables. It just says secure the cables with a padlock. Thanks for the tip.
@@CycleCruza i juat meant that you should hook the left side cable on the right side of your tow hitch and the right cable on the left side of the tow hitch. Im not sure if that makes any since but with a normal trailor thats how you should hook it.
Crossing your cables/chains will catch the hitch if it falls off the ball, instead of it the hitch spearing into the road. It is law in Canada and a $400.00 from the Ministry of Transport of they aren't crossed.
Jerk Ass a lot of the new smaller trailers are using cables now not chains because they are suppose to be better than chains which I don’t see how but I don’t make trailers so I guess they know something I don’t.
I've been waiting for this review I live near Cleveland and my girlfriend is near Cincinnati my motorcycle is up here her motorcycle is down there now you can see the problem I was thinking about getting a Kendon and that's what I thought this was I'm impressed that it's not and you cannot beat that price thank you very much for this review
Just a FYI to you guys considering renting a uhaul motorcycle trailer. There is no insurance you can buy that covers theft of the trailer. you'll be on the hook for its full replacement cost.
Thats a nice little trailer , you did good on that. I would re-locate those 2 shelves on the wall and figure out how to get it chained to the wall so it barely takes up any space.
It stays up on it's own, pulling back more vertical doesn't really add any more room. It takes up very little room as you see. This trailer saves like 1k over a Kendon and it's just as good, imo.
CycleCruza ps safety chain doesn't need to be taught and pulling out the screws with all the weight of the trailer pulling on the chain. A little slack would take the stress off things and provide a safer experience. In case something were to happen.
👍👍👍👍👍 Nice. I bought a 7x4 box trailer over a year. Great decision. The box trailer has multiple uses. When not carrying my bike. I use it for: e.g taking rubbish to the tip or delivering items.
Thanks for the review. Just ordered the 3 rail version. I had a line on a local kendon buy they sold it out underneath me. This will be new for $300 more than used Kendon. Keep up the good vids
CycleCruza, I love your ongoing saga! Here you showed the weak design of this nerd trailer. Has only 1 useful purpose, must be kept inside, must be assembled, and cheap front wheel chock. PS: Your tie down method is newbee, and will shake loose on rough pavement quickly, the heavier the bike, the more quickly it'll fail. I learned by trial and error over time, trailering bikes after purchasing and for track days. The front wheel must be secured in a vice tight chock, the rear wheel tied down, and the chassis allowed to bob free on the suspension.
The suspension was not fully compressed, only morons would do that. However, I did not hook up the tie downs on the axle hooks for the rear of the bike like I should have because I did not see them, the manual did not illustrate them. This trailer has suspension and rode over these pot-hole ridden shitty cleveland streets like a champ as you see in the video. It's a solid trailer. Btw, this trailer is only for my Ducati XDiavel, I built a custom bug out moto van for my other bikes. This trailer does fine with my 545 lb Ducati Xdiavel.
I must admit, it looks like the bike is tight on the roads! Going around corners with a big heavy bike will be the real test. The front wheel chuck may be decent, and that's the most important component. My front chuck is homemade from 3/4 plywood re-enforced with steel angle iron, and that took some design trial and error to perfect, but I'm a professional carpenter and enjoyed the challenge. 10 years ago, there was not good info about wheel chucks. I tried a midrange chuck and it was a fail. The good chucks were kinda pricey too. Hope you used a very good wheel chuck in your van. Best of riding for you!!
Looks like a winner. Especially since you have more than one bike. Most shops have a backlog of work to where you have to drop the bike off even for something simple.
Good video :) you should shorten those safety cables on the trailer and when attaching then to the hitch cross then over. So left to right and ect. Way that if the ball does give way it will full on the cross the cables make
hey thanks! I wish I had the time to camp with my wr! I hope to in the future. I have camped with my wr in my bug out van on two bug out trips in the past (check my bug out video playlist)
Instead of locks, I think you could just get a strong chain link with the quick link style. Much quicker then maybe loosing the locks. Unless we are rollin thru the hood. All the enclosed trailers I've ever owned or towed once they are empty they jump around over bumps and make a bunch of annoying sounds. Slow down for rail road tracks they will feel like they are launching to the moon. Heh that's how light trailers work.
When you’re on the highway at 70mph and up, does it vibrate the entire vehicle? With the U-Haul motorcycle trailer it vibrates your entire truck if you exceed 55mph.
Kendon does a utility trailer for atv's. My kids have atvs and pitbikes. Would you recommend? And does the same company for this trailer do the atv trailer?
Aww this is awesome. Too bad trailers of any size have to be registered in my country and the only compact ones that are allowed here are still pretty large compared to yours and really expensive
Check out the "Stinger Motorcycle trailer "a bit expensive but it folds up much smaller and they deliver it to your door love your chanel keep up the great work!
Thanks for being a viewer! The big con to those stonger trailers is they are too narrow for a fat 240 rear tire and you have to assemble it every time you want to use it. My trailer doesn't take up much room and is ready to go any time and is more sturdy.
HOWWW MUUUUCH?!! I expected it to be no more than $500. It's a decent quality trailer with some great innovative features but way too expensive for what it is. For that money you can get a decent used box trailer kitted out with a work bench & racking inside. Keeps your bike dry when it rains keeps you dry in the paddock or where your parked up &,when on the move no one can see what' iyour towing . So no reason to follow you home & break into your garage later. This happens a lot where I live.
Thanks CycleCruza I’ve been looking for a good solid trailer without eating the wallet my ninja is down and i like the fact that trailer is a 3pc ramp for easy walk up. What triple tree clamps are you using?
I need a single bike trailer for my Ducati 848 driving from Manchester UK all the way to Austria, some trailers i was looking at they cost alot of money and they are massive in size, how much are these Bud? how big is this trailer? Would a sport bike fit in it? Let me know please. Thanks
It looks like it could become unstable if it were to be bumped. I know its relatively light weight, but if it falls on a bike its probably gonna hurt your feelings. Id test to see what it would take to knock it over. To make it fool proof just screw an I Hook to the wall and use one of your tie down straps where the ball goes in.
Cycle C R U Z A looks like a predy nice trailer most diffantly agree with ya about the starps seems like every or most people like those ratcadister things they just seem to piss me off good info thanx 👍😀
Thank you I have been following you for some time now great job on the information that you have provided me. Also, thank you for using a Lexus. I would like to give you a heads up that the RX has provisions to run you hick lighting cable under the cargo under decking on the drivers side at the rear Threshold. Please have a great day
So the bike will get fixed now? I hope that repair will be not sooo expensive. But anyway, It's time for you to ride that bike again. You must enjoy & test all the mods you did on your Yama. 😎
You need to make a trip to Indianapolis this Saturday the 25th August motorcycles on Meridian it’s a good happening look it up on Google be great for your channel! boooost your ratings
In the shop, air condition went out. However, I wanted to do a review on the trailer and had to take the wr in. I bought the trailer for my XDiavel because it doesn't fit in the van, too wide and low.
You did a fine job with the video. But $2500 for a single rail motorcycle trailer is completely insane. It doesn't matter what tricks it can do. I'm sure it is a nice trailer. But $2500! For that! Not happening!
Why do you hide your face? I noticed all four of your ties go in the same direction, if it gets knocked out of the chock, it will fall plus it looks like it could flip forward if you hit something?
I did about 5 videos on that. lol Just do a search on my channel. There are 4 cables supporting the bike, two on the front, two on the real, they are connected to the trailer on two locations.
Yeah but they all go in the same direction. If you tied down say a tractor on a flat bed trailer here in this state like that the Department of Public safety would fine you...
CC isn't an idiot. It's a safe bet he ensured that bike isn't going anywhere even with bumpy roads. Relax. It's a sub 400 pound motorcycle...not thousands of pounds of cut lumber.
I did like 5 videos on why you should want to remain some what anonymous on YT. For me, it's mainly to protect the integrity of my business. I act a fool on YT sometimes and cussed like a trucker in the past. This is not a good look to clients or God forbid I had to get a "good job." Also, screw fame even at the lowest level. I've seen many tubers get robbed and killed over the years from crazy people.
I've been looking at the kendon version of this for a while now, but damn are they expensive. Can the trailer be stood straight up and down? Also when towing the CBR, how do you tie it down in the front? Kendon recommends using the triple tree instead of the bars.
Update: I just checked. Those cables are so long it doesn't matter, tongue will still hit the ground if it came undone. Btw, underneath, the cables are bolted up and down from each other so you can't cross them, either way you put the cable on is the same.
CycleCruza its all good. In my whole life I’ve never had a trailer come off the ball. In fact, I’ve never seen it happen to anyone else either. I’m not saying it can’t happen, I’ve just never seen it happen. Keep on towing the way ya do. If it does come off with yours, it would be a good upload! Jk
I rented one once, I hated it and hated having to pick it up and return it. Also, they don't ride as nice as this fold up trailer. I don't care about the savings, I like the convenience of having a trailer ready to roll anytime and it takes up very little space.
Just looked into the uhaul motorcycle trailer for a 1 week trip. The trailer is not covered if stolen even with their extra damage coverage. You'll be liable for about 6k if stolen.
Don't leave this thing unattended for more than 30 seconds in a Walmart parking lot. There are scumbags out there that will have this thing with or without your bike driving down the road behind their truck in under a minute.. You might want to add a normally closed loop on a connector if your car or truck already has an alarm. So that when they run up and pull the lighting connectors they see and pull that connector too , opening the loop and setting off the alarm.
I would never leave it unattended, this is used just to go to the dealer or shop, photoshoot. Yeah a lot of thieves out there. If I were going across the country I would have much better security.
Damn...too bad it's one of those where you have to have a trailer license plate and lights. I wish I could find one of those without the need of a license plate ( meaning no part of the trailer blocks visual access to my car's taillights and signal lights).
(nods). Currently if I need to tow my rebel 300 2017 around, I use a one-wheel motorcycle dolly thats connects straight to my adapted 1.25" receiver hitch and I strap it down to it's cross bar T that connects into it from the top. However, eventually I plan to sell it or trade it in to buy the nc750x which is the bike I should have bought, but I didn't feel like waiting the extra many months saving the extra 3 to 4 grand it costs. It's more comfy than my cramped rebel ( 32" inseam here. the rebel 300 and 400 2017 and newer year models were really meant for someone who is around 22" to 27" insteam at longest). But I can handle it for now. I love that 80+ mpg I consistently get if I ride her easily. Cheers. CC Thanks for your content. No FOOked up daaaaaaaaaayeeees. xD
Now, try lifting it with two hands to stand it upright. Almost impossible as it keeps rolling forward. Nobody has a video for that! A second person is a necessity unless you like torturing yourself. Better off with an "Apogee" folding aluminum trailer. Easy to fold. It won't roll when you fold it. Far better quailty. Made in Quebec, Canada.🇨🇦

Hey cyclecruza is the wheel chalk wide enough for my 2012 cbr 600rr?
When you lock up the saftey cables to your tow hitch you should be doing it criss cross so if you trailor comes unhookd some how the trailor will fall into the cables like a cradle.
It makes since what you are saying but it would have been nice if they included that info in the manual for this trailer. The manual says nothing about criss crossing cables. It just says secure the cables with a padlock. Thanks for the tip.
@@CycleCruza i juat meant that you should hook the left side cable on the right side of your tow hitch and the right cable on the left side of the tow hitch. Im not sure if that makes any since but with a normal trailor thats how you should hook it.
Excellent.

Cross the cables. Don't be a douche
And why are they cables and not chains with hooks???

Appreciate all your hardwork and keeping us informed man!
Thanks for that, looks pretty handy if you don't have the room for an enclosed trailer.
Yeah if I had room and didn't live in a HOA I would have an enclosed trailer but this trailer works great.

Looks like a winner. Especially since you have more than one bike. Most shops have a backlog of work to where you have to drop the bike off even for something simple.
Tell me about about, wr250r will be in the shop for a while :( I need to buy a second Dual Sport for back up....ktm 500 exc-f
Very nice trailer and review - thanks!
Finally a trailer some of us can sneak into a apartment if you don't live in a house.
Good video :) you should shorten those safety cables on the trailer and when attaching then to the hitch cross then over. So left to right and ect. Way that if the ball does give way it will full on the cross the cables make
who's the white guy loading your bike?
Lmao

hahaha for real I thought he was black for years...
CycleCruza isn’t white, he’s HI-VIZ!
Thanks Cycle Cruza. Very informative.
Cyclecruza love your vids man you're hilarious I'm saving up for an R3 first bike, can you do a vid of you camping with the WR? Thanks
hey thanks! I wish I had the time to camp with my wr! I hope to in the future. I have camped with my wr in my bug out van on two bug out trips in the past (check my bug out video playlist)
This ramp looks very efficiently built, with all the pieces like the ramps somewhere where they don't take up space.
I ask if it was a Kenden before I checked the link, my bad. Does it have suspension, it does not show that in the sellers description.
I just got a house that has space to park multiple full size rvs and still has a 2 car garage, can’t wait to move in!
Nice!
Trailer is awesome. Christmas tiiimmmee! Is near.
I need one for my bike thanks man
I love you brother !
Much love back! take care!
That trailer is kind of cool, but I go with the Ace folding trailer.
More compact 💯X and safe more space.
Is it rigid or have suspension?
Instead of locks, I think you could just get a strong chain link with the quick link style. Much quicker then maybe loosing the locks. Unless we are rollin thru the hood.
All the enclosed trailers I've ever owned or towed once they are empty they jump around over bumps and make a bunch of annoying sounds. Slow down for rail road tracks they will feel like they are launching to the moon. Heh that's how light trailers work.
When you’re on the highway at 70mph and up, does it vibrate the entire vehicle? With the U-Haul motorcycle trailer it vibrates your entire truck if you exceed 55mph.
I was told by the company that you need two pieces of wood to be able to stand it up. Is that right? 0:21
What about loading a sports bike ? Looks like a steep angle
No it's not steep at all, my XDiavel and CBR1000rr go up with ease. The suspension compresses when you load the bike.
Can you do a video loading the cbr? The ramp looks too short to load a sports bike. Looks like it would bottom out.
Could I fit a 400cc four wheeler on here?
That’s a really cool trailer!
I just want to know. Do this Trailer has any Absorber or damping Spring...? It looks Cool though.
Kendon does a utility trailer for atv's. My kids have atvs and pitbikes. Would you recommend? And does the same company for this trailer do the atv trailer?
Aww this is awesome. Too bad trailers of any size have to be registered in my country and the only compact ones that are allowed here are still pretty large compared to yours and really expensive
It costs $2700. Nice trailer but there are ways to get a trailer together for a lot less if you are handy and have a welder etc.
Do they send you a title with the trailer for registration purpose?
Hey buddy quick question: is there a Licence Plate light on this trailer? Thank you
Can painting or coloring you motorcycle chain harm anything or something? Thanks for answers😊 keep up the good work cyclecruza😍
Check out the "Stinger Motorcycle trailer "a bit expensive but it folds up much smaller and they deliver it to your door love your chanel keep up the great work!
Thanks for being a viewer! The big con to those stonger trailers is they are too narrow for a fat 240 rear tire and you have to assemble it every time you want to use it. My trailer doesn't take up much room and is ready to go any time and is more sturdy.
HOWWW MUUUUCH?!! I expected it to be no more than $500.
It's a decent quality trailer with some great innovative features but way too expensive for what it is. For that money you can get a decent used box trailer kitted out with a work bench & racking inside. Keeps your bike dry when it rains keeps you dry in the paddock or where your parked up &,when on the move no one can see what' iyour towing . So no reason to follow you home & break into your garage later. This happens a lot where I live.
Thanks CycleCruza I’ve been looking for a good solid trailer without eating the wallet my ninja is down and i like the fact that trailer is a 3pc ramp for easy walk up. What triple tree clamps are you using?
I need a single bike trailer for my Ducati 848 driving from Manchester UK all the way to Austria, some trailers i was looking at they cost alot of money and they are massive in size, how much are these Bud? how big is this trailer? Would a sport bike fit in it? Let me know please. Thanks
It looks like it could become unstable if it were to be bumped. I know its relatively light weight, but if it falls on a bike its probably gonna hurt your feelings. Id test to see what it would take to knock it over. To make it fool proof just screw an I Hook to the wall and use one of your tie down straps where the ball goes in.
I store 5 gal water bottles underneath it, it's not going anywhere. However, I should secure it, just too lazy to. lol
I just secured it with a bolt underneath the shelf.
Would the Pitbull trailer restraint system work in the rear of the trailer?
Cycle C R U Z A looks like a predy nice trailer most diffantly agree with ya about the starps seems like every or most people like those ratcadister things they just seem to piss me off good info thanx 👍😀
Thanks for viewing!
not a problem excellant vids☺
Thank you I have been following you for some time now great job on the information that you have provided me.
Also, thank you for using a Lexus.
I would like to give you a heads up that the RX has provisions to run you hick lighting cable under the cargo under decking on the drivers side at the rear Threshold.
Please have a great day
I just ran it underneath, I had no patience for an interior install. lol
CycleCruza
Next time I am in you area I will get with you and get it squared away for you
Whew! I can rent a lot of U=Hauls for $2000.
Don't you find it unstable standing up at that slight angle?
So the bike will get fixed now? I hope that repair will be not sooo expensive. But anyway, It's time for you to ride that bike again. You must enjoy & test all the mods you did on your Yama. 😎
I might be adding another dual sport, I need a back up dual sport, probably a new KTM 500 exc-f.
Loving It!!!!
Is that a Kenden??
Noice video, looking into getting one of these for myself.
Thanks! I really like, very easy to store it and it takes up little space.
Thx so much for all this valuable info u put out....stay safe buddy!!!
Great video thanks for sharing!
what is weight limit ? i have goldwings 920 lbs
What’s your thought on the trailer now?
Any updates on the wr250r?
I hope to get it back in 3 weeks. :( I miss urban fookery!
1st.!!
Looks awesome. I need a lighter trailer.. Thanks.
You’re video is awesome!
You need to make a trip to Indianapolis this Saturday the 25th August motorcycles on Meridian it’s a good happening look it up on Google be great for your channel! boooost your ratings
I wish I could go!
Great review hoss
Is a plate required in Alabama?
When can we see you cycle cruza?
Would you recommend it for a little larger bike like a VFR 750?
I haul either my 600+ lb Yamaha Warrior or my 730+ lb Honda VTX1800 with no problems at all. Mine's a Kendon trailer.
How come you chose to buy a trailer? Looks like any of your bikes could fit in the BO van. Maybe except your Ducati.
bought for ducati, too low and wide for van. However, it's nice having a trailer like this, makes towing super easy.
About time!
How many pounds is it? Can my yaris tow this?
What happened to the dope bug out moto van? : )
In the shop, air condition went out. However, I wanted to do a review on the trailer and had to take the wr in. I bought the trailer for my XDiavel because it doesn't fit in the van, too wide and low.
This will serve its purpose for one bike😅
What made you decide to get the trailer since you got the van?
Actually, I got the trailer for that XDiavel that i had, it was too low and fat for the van. However, I like the trailer even better for local towing.
I’ve never seen this at Costco
You did a fine job with the video. But $2500 for a single rail motorcycle trailer is completely insane. It doesn't matter what tricks it can do. I'm sure it is a nice trailer. But $2500! For that! Not happening!
Why do you hide your face?
I noticed all four of your ties go in the same direction, if it gets knocked out of the chock, it will fall plus it looks like it could flip forward if you hit something?
So the TMZ cancerous people don't fallow him around!!!
I did about 5 videos on that. lol Just do a search on my channel. There are 4 cables supporting the bike, two on the front, two on the real, they are connected to the trailer on two locations.
Yeah but they all go in the same direction. If you tied down say a tractor on a flat bed trailer here in this state like that the Department of Public safety would fine you...
MVE is like the DNR only for the interstate.
CC isn't an idiot. It's a safe bet he ensured that bike isn't going anywhere even with bumpy roads. Relax. It's a sub 400 pound motorcycle...not thousands of pounds of cut lumber.
You ever spend any time in Commerce Township Mi?
never been there
how bout them rc trucks?
Do I have to Registered this trailer by DMV
No registration required. Just drive it around without a tag. Have fun.
I like how you remain anonymous no matter what. Lol. You must have a lot of haters
I did like 5 videos on why you should want to remain some what anonymous on YT. For me, it's mainly to protect the integrity of my business. I act a fool on YT sometimes and cussed like a trucker in the past. This is not a good look to clients or God forbid I had to get a "good job." Also, screw fame even at the lowest level. I've seen many tubers get robbed and killed over the years from crazy people.
I've been looking at the kendon version of this for a while now, but damn are they expensive. Can the trailer be stood straight up and down? Also when towing the CBR, how do you tie it down in the front? Kendon recommends using the triple tree instead of the bars.
no but it stand up just fine and is not in the way. This trailer is legit. Use triple tree.
Only a few people will understand what was done wrong with the cables 😂
Levi bmx or about 2 of every 3 commenters! LOL!
Update: I just checked. Those cables are so long it doesn't matter, tongue will still hit the ground if it came undone. Btw, underneath, the cables are bolted up and down from each other so you can't cross them, either way you put the cable on is the same.
CycleCruza its all good. In my whole life I’ve never had a trailer come off the ball. In fact, I’ve never seen it happen to anyone else either. I’m not saying it can’t happen, I’ve just never seen it happen. Keep on towing the way ya do. If it does come off with yours, it would be a good upload! Jk
Uhaul 15 per day cycle trailer. No storage problem
I rented one once, I hated it and hated having to pick it up and return it. Also, they don't ride as nice as this fold up trailer. I don't care about the savings, I like the convenience of having a trailer ready to roll anytime and it takes up very little space.
Just looked into the uhaul motorcycle trailer for a 1 week trip. The trailer is not covered if stolen even with their extra damage coverage. You'll be liable for about 6k if stolen.
I clicked the link of the trailer, DID YOU PAY 2000+ FOR THAT?
Don't leave this thing unattended for more than 30 seconds in a Walmart parking lot. There are scumbags out there that will have this thing with or without your bike driving down the road behind their truck in under a minute.. You might want to add a normally closed loop on a connector if your car or truck already has an alarm. So that when they run up and pull the lighting connectors they see and pull that connector too , opening the loop and setting off the alarm.
I would never leave it unattended, this is used just to go to the dealer or shop, photoshoot. Yeah a lot of thieves out there. If I were going across the country I would have much better security.
Anyone wondering its $1674.00 plus shipping
I'm taking 5 Points away because you didn't use the Bugout Moto van to pull the trailer.
Damn...too bad it's one of those where you have to have a trailer license plate and lights. I wish I could find one of those without the need of a license plate ( meaning no part of the trailer blocks visual access to my car's taillights and signal lights).
yeah sucks to have another registration bill, however, it's cheaper than regular car plates.
(nods). Currently if I need to tow my rebel 300 2017 around, I use a one-wheel motorcycle dolly thats connects straight to my adapted 1.25" receiver hitch and I strap it down to it's cross bar T that connects into it from the top. However, eventually I plan to sell it or trade it in to buy the nc750x which is the bike I should have bought, but I didn't feel like waiting the extra many months saving the extra 3 to 4 grand it costs. It's more comfy than my cramped rebel ( 32" inseam here. the rebel 300 and 400 2017 and newer year models were really meant for someone who is around 22" to 27" insteam at longest). But I can handle it for now. I love that 80+ mpg I consistently get if I ride her easily.
Cheers. CC Thanks for your content. No FOOked up daaaaaaaaaayeeees. xD
Is this a chinese copy of a Kendon?
It's chinese for sure but it's built well and rides good. No issues so far in over a year and I've towed all of my bikes with this trailer.
@@CycleCruza I think they make them for kendons less expensive go series.
Now, try lifting it with two hands to stand it upright. Almost impossible as it keeps rolling forward. Nobody has a video for that! A second person is a necessity unless you like torturing yourself.
Better off with an "Apogee" folding aluminum trailer. Easy to fold. It won't roll when you fold it. Far better quailty.
Made in Quebec, Canada.🇨🇦
Man, Cycle Cruza...
You still liking it?
I just bought one!
never should have sold the CBR😔
Seems like a lot just to put it together and take it apart
Really, you only need one ramp, which will save time. All else takes no time at all.
You should invest in a tripod...
