    I had (its in a basket in Grandpa's barn) a Yamaha 500 cc thumper. Compresson release Kick Start machine... I put 19 K on it when i was in College. I still have a Suzuki FA 50 cc that i got for Grandma. I rode it at Bike rallies, Nascar Daytona 500 ,and Homestead FL to shuttle around the parking lot and get in trouble....BTW in Europe they call it the Shuttle bike. I want to sell it. BTW I am not a TOMBOY I can make the best gravy.

    Just joined. Been riding since grammar school and still going. I like to ride off and on-road "toys" and I don't care if it's import or domestic, if I like it, I ride it. I'm also factory trained tech for H-D and Suzuki. I currently work for a Chinese powersports dealership and there is little to no support from the makers and that includes any manuals or diagrams.

    1992 Kawaki Concours 1000 cc kick as* machine with custom cam. I got it with 65 K on it. Had to epoxy cote the rusty fuel tank as it had sat for years.. Had a specialist tune the 4 Carburetors and do the cam work...Love that sucking sound when my wrist rotates..and it goes BAROOOOMMMMMM!.. 94 K on it now.

    Box tubing 1 x 2 nice if you can miter the ends good. That would probably be a chalene for me...LOL But I can cut the 2 x 3 x 3/16 angle easily..Plus I have that.

    Yes, the angles do improve tongue stability. I used 1" x 2" steel tubing, not sure of the gauge. I'm sure there are professional welders in our group who would offer advice. the winch was an inexpensive $79 Harbor Freight but I really like the wired/wireless feature.

    That's nice I should weld angle Iron braces on mine. Its floppy at the front when loaded. Those are 6 ply 15 inch tires. Handy having a Wench..LOL

    Yes I agree with your concept of triangular braced tongue, as I welded onto my 5 x 8 light duty homemade trailer as shown. I also added a light duty battery operated winch to load any stubborn materials. (Remove spare tire to access the cable opening,). The winch has wireless control for actually sitting on the atv or motorcycle while it is being winched into the trailer. As with your trailer this is the perfect size for atv moving as well as general purpose. I have another 6 x 12 single axle 3500 lb open top trailer that I use for heavier equipment.

    I bought the trailer in a pinch to haul stuff for Grandma. Up in Ohio at a Tractor supply.. I do not like single tongue trailers I like triangular braced braced tongues. Otherwise it has been good ..second set of tires, repacked bearings thousands of miles on it

    Here is my homemade wheel Bonnets. A friend gave me a bunch of old snow chain cross chains. 3/16 in steel cable for side straps. I crimped on 1/2 CU tubing to keep chains from sliding along steel cable. working on best tightening system now. The tire shown is a 15 inch on my sand rail. Should easily fit my SXS tires also.
