Just as long as your riding is what matters. I nod and throw the hand out to all riders except those punks on the scooters. They don't have to display a tag,endorsements,non Dot helmet,no insurance, no taxes paid, and ride stright down the road with a faggit looking milk crate on the back. It's always a damn sealtest milk crate. A trailer is not a bad idea, I could put a nice tool set,2 qts of mobile 1,12 pack of Icehouse,clutch cable,extra drive belt,plug kit, air cylinder,battery, a gallon of fuel, a tent, sleeping bag,and a extra helmet for the unknown. Of course you could look at Raywoods packing techniques and put it all on the rear fender and triple trees. Good Luck Man!
