Pretty excited...took delivery of my trailer this past Monday! Unfortunately no pics yet...because we are in a deep freeze...

It towed perfectly just how a tandom trailer should. Pics are coming...

OBTW: This Friday the 4th...I take delivery of my 2 new 2011 SP Tourings. So...the trailer will get a 4hr (each way) maiden voyage.

Excellent. Let us know how you like the touring.

Keep the wheel bearings clean and packed, and the brakes properly adjusted, and enjoy the trailer.

A good quality brake controller is also a must.

This will be my first enclosed trailer...and I want to protect the floor as best as possible.

Thanks!

Update:
Ok...the 6x16 v-nose trailer came in...and got the call. Was totally excited...and went to pick it up. GREAT looking trailer! On the 10 mile drive home...it towed like a dream. Smooth...and didn't know the 2500lbs was back there.

3 days later...my 2 NEW atv's are ready for picking them up. I hitch the trailer and off I go. Lower the ramp...and drive in the first machine. I'm thinking...dang...this is tight in here. Drive in the next machine...and now I realize...Ohhh...dang! Did I buy an enclosed trailer that is big enough??? Yes...they fit...but more like OJ's gloves!

My 2 machines are the 2011 Sportsman Touring models. They are 90in long...so I figured that a 16ft trailer was good for 15ft of machines. But I totally...and I mean totally under estimated the size of the machines.

Figured I'd call the trailer sales owner...and ask if he would be willing to do a trade-in on my trailer for a NEW replacement trailer that is more like 7x20. Told me straight out...NO. I was / am shocked! It's not like I wanted full price...but I figured a 10 - 20 % off...would be fair. Nope...nothing...zero!

So...in so many words...I am totally F*****************ed!!! YES...a $4200 screw-up!!!

Any words of wisdom is truly appreciated!

Default 6x16 enclosed trailer

Hey-

Was reading your posts on your trailer that you just bought...6x16 enclosed v-nose.

Wondering if you're so unhappy with it that you're looking to sell it???

Send me an email if so...i'm looking for that size...but looking for some more specifics on the one you have.

Thanks-

I spent the $ for an alluminum extrusion type floor product in my enclosed trailer. Hate it. Won't rot, but makes a whale of a lot of noise and you cannot clean it. The only thing I can use is a power sprayer to clean it. I use a non slip deck paint on my open trailer. I can spray it clean as well, but I have to re-paint it every couple of years. I hate replacing decks.
