Found John in OK a ride.

Post by n-trude »

Found this on another forum.
Might just be the cheap trailer for John.

What do you think?

Looks like it might make the bike "plow" in the corners...

Because of the single wheel? There are a lot of single wheel trailers. Now the wind might be a problem getting under that trailer and making it too light. :uhh: But I doubt if that little bike would go fast enough to worry about that. [emoji2]

You both make a good observation there about Lift At Speed.

Anyone who would consider traveling at Realistic Highway Speeds (wind direction(s) and gusts added) and then look at (the lack of) Smart Aerodynamics of that Suggested Trailer, (and also lack of weight due to small capacity) would know better than to attach it to their Ride.

I am impressed by your Consideration Of The Physics Involved.

Um..I'm afraid you boyz are missing the point completely here.

Now considering that the bike is not only painted in John Deer green, it also sports the logo as well. With that in mind doesn't that seem to make it, FARM equipment? And as you ALL know Farm equipment drivers ALWAYS drive at VERY slow and OMG downright boring speeds? So with this in mind I think you all need to apologize for your remarks about not handling and whatnot, cause for farming equipment......it's probably perfect!

But that's just me looking beyond the bubble... :mrgreen:

Naaa, I don't think we overlooked anything. But I think you may be stuck in a bubble. :Umm: You do realize that Blue is faster than Green so he should have painted it Ford Blue instead of John Deere green. :lolfall:

Now as for Designers reply. All I was doing was relying on my experience of pulling a trailer thousands of miles. ;IDunno: [space] [emoji476]

There are few people on here that I care what they think of me, you happen to be one of them. I try to post my honest feeling and thoughts when making a serious post. Most of the time I just post crap that seems to amuse me at the time. But I do take this once great nation very serious and worry about what the near future holds for us all. Especially with what has been going on, or not going on, in Wash. D.C. the last few decades. Maybe this UK pullout of the EU is the wake up call this country has needed. I have no idea what is going to happen in the near future, all I can do is pray it is good for all of us in the USA. I think I got off the thread topic. :lmao:

As do I My Friend,...as do I.

There is Hope for A Change that you can REALLY believe in.

The Brexit Vote has it's 'Ripple Effect' going on amongst the hugely dissatisfied public who are totally FED UP with the leftists-elitists who DICTATE to them instead of LISTEN to them.
