Travel Trailer Assembly

Your Trailer Parts:
If you purchased a 

TravelTrailer with your bike, 

you should have two trailer 

wheels and two yellow felt 

bags with the tongue and axle. 

The bottom of your TravelCase 

should have three holes drilled 

in it if you ordered the trailer 

with your bike. If you ordered 

the TravelTrailer system 

separately, you will need to find the three dimple marks in the 

bottom of your case and drill them through with a ¼” drill. Please 

note the hole for the tongue (in contrast to the two holes for the 

wheel axle) is offset slightly. The reason for this is for the telescop-

ing handle. There is a cable running down the center inside the 

aluminum tunnel; offsetting the bolt allows the bolt for the trailer 

to pass through the aluminum tunnel without striking the cable.

Remove Thumb Nuts

Remove the parts out of the felt 

bags and remove the thumb nuts 

and one of the washers from 

each of the three threaded bolts 

(leaving one washer over each 

stud post).

Install the Trailer Tongue

 

Turn the TravelCase upside 

down (while closed). Slip the 

hollow end of the tongue over 

the end of the T-piece. Take the 

trailer tongue and insert its bolt 

through the corresponding hole 

on the travel case (through the 

aluminum tunnel). Note: The 

gentle curve in the tongue is 

located on the same side as the 

side latch.
