Stoked! New to me Bushtec

[PhatAir4Me]

I was bored and cruising the local craigslist motorcycle ads and there was a guy selling a Honda 1800 with an 03 Bushtec Turbo +2 he wanted 5500 for the pair. I ended up grabbing this trailer which is seven years newer than mine for 1000 bucks and then gave him 100 for the wall mount and a remote control 12v winch system and the hitch! It’s a pretty close color match to my ‘10.

Being a farm kid and CDL holder, I have to say there’s something badass about pulling a trailer around with my FJR, lol!
Like the rototiller and rear PTO kit on my old Gravely tractor. Didn’t get used much but was just flat out cool.

Overtaking and passing other bikes has a special allure! Not to mention the ability to drop a tent, cook a meal and kick it in a comfy chair is a big plus!

Wait... you don't need a 103ci vtwin or a Goldwing to tow a trailer?

All kidding aside, how does it impact the rideability of a bike with a trailer? Asking for a friend...
