Hello ST Friends,
I am delivering a motorcycle a distance of 600km. I am not well enough to ride it and want to trailer it. It is a Victory Judge and weighs in at app 700 lbs. I have a good trailer with 14" wheels and a 2500 lb capacity so I know I can easily pull it with my ST. Loading is not an issue, I can just ramp and drive it on. My trip is all Trans Canada Highway, so reasonably smooth sailing.
Here is my question. What is "proper" way to secure the machine in the trailer. I hear different opinions as to compressing forks, tail compressed, tail loose, kick down, kick up etc.
I really need some info from you guys that do this regularly.
Normally I would enjoy putting my butt in the saddle and riding especially this may be my last trip but my "boys" won't take a ride like that.
I intend to do this on Saturday April 14th so please answer or email me with advice.
