Cheers Ben , I haven't got room for a trailer , yes its for the fatty dommie so the rear carrier is not beefy enough ,but thanks anyway

Who ever does weld it up would need to be a coded welded for insurance reasons, there is one hell of a load on that, I like it but dunno if I could trust it !

I like the look of this ,but the tow hitch would have to be changed , and a cross member to ratchet the bike to

Much prefer that design as you using the strength of the steel instead of a welded angle! The welds on the pic dont look the best tho!!!!

[T'Onion]

neither does the carpet

you fancy knocking me one up in the workshop then James

[jamesc76]

would do mate but my mig just aint up for it! The ones we have at work are locked off and only the coded welders at work can use um

mine would be bolted together with M12 bolts.
no welding to worry you
