Some shots of my toys. One trip to Sturgis and the Black Hills without a bike/trike to ride and I had to do something - and I didn't like the idea of pulling a trailer long enough for a car and a trike. I drive on the trike, lift it (electric hoist and pulley system), hook up my SUV behind that and off we go. A pair of 5/8" stainless pins take the load off the winch and cable once lifted. I tacked it together and had a certified welder secure each stage of fabrication. Then had a trailer fabricator who's been doing that work for a zillion years do a final inspection and stamp of approval.

To give credit where it's due, I started with a Cruiserlift as the basic structure (and made many major modifications and design changes to handle the additional weight, center of gravity change, etc.). Because the lift is frame mounted on the motorhome, towing the SUV behind that does not count as double trailering (which is illegal in some states). I still haven't made myself relax while traveling with this train yet though.

That is a great looking set up,,,, I have read on several of the RV boards where they are looking for something to carry their trike with their Motorhome.. Looks like U have figured something out for it.... Most are towing a long wheel base truck with the trike in the back....

Good job,,,,,enjoy the trike and Motorhome, and keep posting some pictures of ur travels....
