Vickie and I are looking for a small trailer... big enough to strap a couple of motorcycles on... or one snowmobile.... I wouldn't mind if it were a project in need of a new deck or bearings are something like that. She has a motorcycle and I'm planning on getting one... I also have a snowmobile and am sick of having to jump it into the bed of my pickup!!!

Anyone have something they want to part with cheap?

Mike

No one has an old snowmobile or utility trailer laying around they want to get rid of?

Yeah i do, but I'm on the wrong side of the state. Got a 6x8 frame from a pop-up camper. Got wood for the floor and a light kit for it but not intalled yet.

I may just have to check that out! As long as it will support a snowmobile (about 600 lbs or so) I'm ok.

Waterfoul,

Check Harbor Freight. They've got several small trailers in the $200 range. A buddy of mine has one that he hauls a small boat on and it works great.

Try this link.....

At the search page that comes up, just type in Trailer and hit search. You should be able to find one that will work.

Think this would work for my snowmobile? Only problem is the sled is a little over 8' long... would hang off the back a little... I'd put some sort of gaurd on the front to keep rocks and slush off the payload so the skis could not hang over the front... and 990 lbs is plenty heavy as the sled does not wiegh anywhere near that.
