Thought I'd share a few pics of my trailer. Painted it to carry to carry on the theme of the Hummer.

Gave up sportbikes abut 4 months ago. Bought this '05 softail Nightrain then. Haven't looked back.
Getting ready to put a fat tire kit on it. I already painted a fender to match but haven't had the money to buy the wheels.

CRUSH I JUST KNEW YOU COULD PAINT BROTHER. I KNEW IT. I WISH I COULD GET YOU ON MY RIDE ALSO. GOT SOME BIG NATIONAL STUFF WE COULD DO IF WE HAD SOME MORE HELP.
AWSOME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You have changed My mind also to softail Harley as well.
I have been thinking about the new kawasaki man killer but at 49 maybe I better think about cool and comfort.

Thanks Taz, ya know, you wouldn't be the first person to have a vehicle brought from out of state to get something painted.
A couple of months ago, I had a guy drive his Corvette down from Maine for paintwork.
A few months before that we had a guy drive his truck from Georgia for a flame job.... spent 14K and won best paint in the next 5 shows he went to.
Last summer painted a Corvette from Florida... even had guys ship parts from California to get painted. (which I thought was wierd since surely they could find someone local to paint)
Anyway, if ya get in a jam, let me know...
As far as the softail... I've been riding sportbikes since I was 20 (I'm 43 now) Unless I'm going to the track or to Deal's Gap, I just don't enjoy it as much as I use to.
I remember I had a 600 in 2002 before it got stolen. I put 20K miles on it that year. When it got stolen, I purchased a 954 CBR late that summer to replace it and up until 4 months ago, it's only got 7K miles.
I bought the softail 4 months ago and I've got 4500 miles on it already. I love to ride it. I thought I would miss the sportbike and I do to a point but I absolutely love to just cruise ride to ride. I'd have even more if it hadn't been raining so damn much the last couple of months.
Anyway, thanks everyone for the compliments, just thought you'd like the trailer pics....

Hey Crush that could be a possibility on shipping something out to You. How are You at building and painting with paint mixed and furnished sometimes on interior custom dash parts or just consoles that sort of stuff. Some bondo but, allot of dynaglass. Seems to be little easier to shape yet mix so it sets as quick as You want and stronger than bondo without the thickness required to prevent cracks. You know what i mean better than i'm explaining. I know it is not a good painters choice not to have the full project in His hands but, with a great painter it is possible to have parts of a project done outside. Just cannot be helped by try to do it so that each specialist work is a project of it's own and just fits in.
Have an interior uhpolstery that works great with just part of project but, like console stuff He does not mind as long as it is it's own project and blends with total project. Makes it easier without worrying if color just right that kind of stuff. I would never put a professional in that kind of position. Know what i mean. It would be close consulting and communication.

P.S. That's the best looking Night Train I've ever seen, you hit the balance perfectly between Color, Black Out and Chrome. Well Done :perfect10s:

Taz,
Sorry, never got a email about this post. We do that kind of work all the time. If I can help ya, let me know.

You mean was... Right after these pics, my wife and I went to a rally in SC. I had loaded up my bike and started to head to the house to get her sportster. One of the pots bolted to the floor RIPPED right out of the floor leaving my bike on it's side in the trailer.
Minor damage, chip in tank, bent handlebars and gouged rear fender.
I got everything back to normal and 2 days ago she and I trailered the bikes to Myrtle Beach fall rally. I bought special chaulks for the bikes and tied them down. Everything was fine there but on the way back, I hit a bump, it jarred the trailer and apparently unhooked one of the tiedowns on her sportster.
IT FELL ON TOP OF MINE... got the insurance estimate today. 3800 dollars damage for the two of them.
:crying:
Well, gotta do some repainting... besides I want a cowcatcher front fender anyways.
