i looked at the same one. i have the blade 150cc and mine wouldnt fit. it was 3 inches to wide for it. the back would fit but the front wouldnt. are your front and rear tires the same width or when you look at it from behind the rear tires are tucked in a little compared to the front?

when i look from the back, the front wheel go out wider than the back...but i measured the front and it is under 5 feet so i should be good. i was just wondering about the weight and all.

oh Laughing i wouldnt think you would have an issue with weight on that trailer. my buddy has one and we loaded it up with oak fire wood. i know it was about the same weight as a buggy.

i dont see how hard it could really be. if you can work on that buggy of yours a trailer should be a sinch.

i bought one off base at the lemon lot. i bought mine for 250 bucks. the guy used it for his riding lawnmower and other lawn equipment. its a tilt trailer with a pretty hefty axel. you can see part of it in one of my pictures posted in muddy chicks on muddbogg day. my pregnant wife and puppy are sleeping on it. while i was out riding the buggy. lol

yeah your right. they do look a little skimpy. they might have a lower weight capacity than the trailer itself does....... Confused
