I am still investigating an A Frame tow bar for my M3W but it may not be as simple as I had hoped.

I just want to be able to take my pride and joy distances without the mileage associated. Take it somewhere and park up the car and trailer and away in the Airy Triker.

Someone here suggested a lightweight bespoke trailer may be a better way forward. A cover could be on the M3W while in transit too. I have access to a great engineering firm who would be able to produce a number of units if there was a demand. Please respond if you think it is a good idea and would be interested if the price was right.

regards

We have a few companies in Germany which produce trike Trailers. e.g. JS Trailer

The photo shows a solution using a Standard platform Trailer.

Keep mogging

I bought this in Vermont, which doesn't help out very much. This is a good general idea of what I have found to work very well. I even bolted on a lockable toolbox for the cover and tie-downs. This particular model is used for three motorcycles and that is why the rear folding ramp goes all the way across. Note also that the Morgan's bottom is very low and that one has to jockey the ramp/trailer combination in order to produce a gentle slope, otherwise the middle of the body will scrape or even get hung up.

The front windscreen really helps to stop the road debris being kicked up by the tow vehicle.

Please do not put a cover on it while towing! The cover will just flap in the wind and beat the M3W! I use the tonneau cover while towing and put the whole vehicle cover on for over nights and while parked.


What's your mileage? Who cares. Is it practical? See #1. What happens when it rains? You get wet.

I have this one with a third ramp and I am very happy with this trailer, in Germany I am allowed to drive 100 km/h and in France 130 km/h

There's probably an Ifor Williams trailer that would be suitable, I'd have a look at their plant trailer range, or to make loading even simpler, get a small stock trailer, as they have a single full-width ramp rather than individual ones for each track.

Whatever you do, make sure you get a twin-wheel job, a puncture on a single wheel trailer with your pride and joy on board doesn't bear thinking about.
