: If I figure out how to transport my Lightening 17 using my FZ1, I'll be sure
: to drop a line and a pic to show how I did it. Wouldn't it be the sweetest
: ever to take advantage these two great modes of transport at the same
: time. ;)

Oh yeah!

www.isn.net/~jasmith/trailer.html will give some idea of the rig I ride. The hitch was off the bike so I could get (another!) rear tire. I go through a few of them! LOL

www.isn.net/~jasmith/hitch.html should show the solid but ugly hitch )off teh bike).

My original thought was to pop the clammshell of the trailer frame, build some racks and extend the tongue but I'd have to reregister the trailer in each configuration each time I switched. Not good.

Ultimately I will be scrapping all those pics out of my webspace to show progress of my 3 SOFs... Can't wait! My boss should be bringing me some wood (free!) to work tomorrow so I can get started on the gunwhales this weekend!
