The Piggybacker is finally on the road

[CurtG]

Finally figured out the wiring and got the trailer out for a test run today. Tag on the BRP cable said 2 of the wires were right flasher and left flasher (Canadian for not turn signal evidently). Once I remembered that brakes and turn signals occupy the same wires I have all the required lights got the cable done up so it looks nice and is hopefully water tight. Empty the Piggybacker is light and bounces a lot, however with 60 pounds of lead it comes along rather smoothly. Got it out on some city streets and on a nearby bypass with a 50 mph limit and it tracks right along nice and smooth. The changed shift points take a little getting use to in the trailer modes but nothing serious.

I'd recommend the product to anyone looking for an inexpensive trailer. The kit went together easily and after I finally decoded the cable the hook up went well. Will need to load it and see what the gas mileage does.

Ride safe,

Next time they're hooked up

Plan to do that next time they're hooked up. A thunder storm was moving in yesterday and I want them unhooked and the Bug and me under cover.

Ride safe,

So far I'm pleased with the way the trailer pulls and the quality of the trailer and the company.

Ride safe,
