One for the Harley guys

[Jetfixer]

So my buddy tears his rotator cuff and has shoulder surgery. He can't ride but also can't pass up a great deal on a new top-of-the-line Harley. What else could I do but offer to help get it home from the Harley dealer.

Hey, it says in the book not to do it, so it must not be doable!:roflblack:

I'm glad some people are willing to try the unconventional! :thumbup:

 

[Grandpot]

I don't care how you look at it, that's funny.:clap::clap::clap:

and the 40 lb tongue weight, but

I probably wouldn't have let that stop me from getting the pic of the HD being towed by the Spyder

:roflblack: It also states to read that safety card before you push the mode button :roflblack::lecturef_smilie:
The question is what was the total trailer weight & applied tongue weight? Also did you change the trailer ball to a 2"? Looks like everything still pulled fine, any other details you care to share, like Distance & speed range?? Thanks:firstplace:

I gotta come clean with you all. I didn't really tow the Harley. But the opportunity for the photo was too great to miss! Here's why...
1-Dennis sells his Harley due to the obligatory oil leaks.
2-Dennis wants a new Harley.
3-Dennis tears his shoulder.
4-After two months of rehab, Dennis re-tears his shoulder.
5-Dennis still wants a new Harley.
6-I tell Dennis that I'll come take his wife for a ride on my Spyder and then there won't be a new Harley!
7-Dennis banishes me from his house.
8-Dennis banishes me from his whole neighborhood.
9-Dennis sneaks off and buys this new Harley without telling his wife.
10-Dennis has to borrow Bill's trailer since he can't ride his new Harley. (See items 3 & 4 above) Bill is also a hard core Harley guy.
11-Dennis needs help getting the bike off Bill's trailer. (See items 3 & 4 above)
12-I go over to get the Harley off Bill's trailer and realize just how priceless an opportunity this is to get both Bill and Dennis.
13-I also send Bill a photo of his now empty trailer attached to my Spyder and being the nice guy I am, offer to bring the trailer back to his house.
14-Bill banishes me from his neighborhood.

What are friends for?

Just 2 comments, a) Harleys do NOT leak oil, they just mark their spot! b)I always thought that a trailer was one half of a Harley tool kit!?!?!?!?
