Motorcycle Trailer Pod?

[Joe Jones]

I am not typically a superstitious person but I would not want to toe around a coffin around behind my bike LOL

You are in the minority.

Here's a youtube video of funny things on the roadways. At the 4:38 mark is a Harley towing a coffin trailer.

This is a poorly done trailer. The center of gravity is too high. The trailer is not level for access when stopped. The leaf spring suspension makes for a very rough ride. The protruding fenders are just UGLY!

My coffin trailers will have a low center of gravity, independent suspension, and much more.

I didn't mean to imply anything. Just since you have this thread going, it was cool to see the idea in a video. Normally I'd likely just pass by and not make note, but when I saw it in the video, I had to get to the mouse and hit pause.

I have seen many trailers that use coffins as the storage pods. no offense taken! I just am not impressed with that particular one. Others are done with amazing style and creativity.

That's why you build your own, stop talking start doing.

I am! I have ordered the suspension. I will order the wheels and tires. I will weld up the frame and tongue. I am going to begin with the blue coffin, which just happens to match my bike. I will probably have it repainted anyway, after doing some body mods to the coffin. I am shopping for a roller machine to bend the frame members to match the curved contours of the coffins beneath, rather than using square frames.

Stainless steel boat hardware will replace the existing hinges and lid locks. The two-piece lid must be converted to a single piece lid. That will require some serious fiberglass work and redneck engineering.

All in good time!

Not sure its what you need, and I haven't had the chance to do much with it.....yet. But I would also like to have a triple drive tube roller some day.

I am holding out for the three roller bender that does round pipe, square tubing, angle, T-bar and more.

Deezl Smoke - that's a very nice looking bender and looks to be extremely versatile. I'm still using my JD2 Model 3 - works well for what I need to do.

I looked at the JD benders, and to be honest, the true reason I went with the Rogue was the manufacturer is local to me. I went and picked it up and had a chance to visit with the Rogue team. The JDs are very popular benders and seem to have a lot of good reviews. The Elite package from Rogue was on sale at the time I bought so I ordered the full shibang.
