Last fall we finally decided to purchase a trailer to tow out LT and Dual Sport bike. We have always wanted to get an "Easy Hauler" trailer - It cranks down to ground level for loading - BUT the manufacturer closed there doors shortly before we tried to order one. So my question is - Does anyone have any recommendations for a "light" trailer that is an easy loader. We are looking at the aluminum Aluma 2 bike trailer ( http://www.alumaklm.com/sections/products/template_new.php?product_id=6&product_category=2 ) We have read reviews here of the Kendon - but they usually mention needs two people to load.
We need a light trailer as our two tow vehicles are rather small (one is a MINI).
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated - also personal users input would help as well. Our location is the great Pacific Northwest

This one (http://www.baxleycompanies.com/trailer.html) is similar in operation to the Easy Hauler. I don't remember for sure, butt Raffy may be a seller.

I believe that the Baxley trailer folks were at CCR last year. It is a real easy loader. Give them a call.

Steve, I have an Aluma trailer similar to the one you are looking at and I have no trouble loading my LT or any bike. I have towed my LT and a HD Road Glide with ease. The trailer tracks wonderfully even at warp speed, in addition it is super light!

Steve;
I also have the Aluma MC10, tow it with my wife's Pontiac, load the LT alone, and yes, it does track very well at "warp" speeds.

For a drop-down trailer, see also the Razor.

Thanks
Food for thought - Looks like the Aluma may be MY best option so far - given weight - ease of loading - cost (shipping included) and availability.
