[QUOTE="N4HHE, post: 1305851, member: 89143"] I once had a Harbor Freight 4x8 cheapie trailer I kept in my back yard. Kept having to move it to keep from killing the grass. Since then I have had a 15x55 carport (13' high at the lowest) added to the side of my attached garage. I'm rich with manly space! But the Kendon dual gets stood up on its tail and pushed against a wall anyway. This trailer is so low to the ground the foremost lowest tubes have been sandblasted of the factory powder coating. Must deal with that soon. Thinking of using automotive undercoating as something soft that might endure. If I'm really ambitious Line-X world HQ is just a few miles away and they like to coat any and everything. As for the claim of superiority of landscape trailers: My Kendon has an aluminum floor. And 4 indentions in said floor from when it was used to move a piano. A motorcycle rides about half as high on a Kendon as a landscape trailer, lower wind resistance. Plus the Kendon doesn't have that big mesh airbrake of a ramp. I know from experience I get 5% to 10% better MPG with the Kendon than with my friend's landscape trailer. Makes a difference on 1000 mile weekends. [/QUOTE]
