Not towing with the bike... But towing the bike.
I'm looking for a low cost trailer that'll haul the bike around. I'm thinking for long trips where we have too much to pack (the girlfriend always seems to overpack - plus we've got our puppy to take along now)... But, those places I'd like to have the bike around to use too.
I know that my Jeep will pull a small trailer with the weight of the Savage without any problems. Anyone have any suggestions? Just a regular flat bed trailer would do? Or... Do you recommend the bike trailers that I've seen?
A guy down the street from my house has a very small flatbed trailer with a little hook for the front wheel to hold in. I want to check with him to see where he picked it up at.
I found this at Harbor Freight:

Compared to this one:

Thoughts or suggestions?
