Kendon Trailers

Anyone have one and if so what do you think of them.

Looks good and easily stored. I need a storable trailer for lugging my bikes to the shop.

I think those trailers are sweet and nice for storage. I have seen them before and I think they work well for bikes. I would prefer a 15" wheel, but for a single bike it would probably be just as good. The price is a bit much considering I bought my 16' tandem axle trailer that has brakes and is built like a brick shit house for less than $2k. I guess you are paying for the convenience and engineering.

Out!

I agree with everything you said. A good trailer would be nice but storage is an issue here and the Kendon looks like the hot ticket.I can pack it in a corner of the garage. I have a lead on a used one but have yet to negotiate a price.

I'm on my second Kendon. First was a dual rail that I used when I did club racing. It was great to shlep my friend's bikes with me, as well as to track days, etc. I sold it when I quit racing (they really don't depreciate that much) and recently bought a single rail just to have in case I ever need it... ie, heading to a trackday, etc... or a service appointment if I can't get a ride home... ha, ha. At any rate, they're excellent. Quality, finish, service, performance... handling, everything... ZERO complaints. Do it. You won't regret it.

I have one. They are awesome trailers. Once folded up they easily roll and store. Great concept and quality.

I've had mine for about 5 years now. Priced higher than most for the size but well worth it if you are tight on storage. Nice thing about storing the trailer in the garage it seems to not need as much maint. as one left out in the elements. Mine still looks almost brand new.

Lovely Linda and I moved to a townhome 7 years ago, so I needed a trailer for my bikes that took up little room in the garage. The two bike Kendon has filled the bill perfectly. A bit spendy, but quality stuff. Highly recommended.

I have the 2 bike stand up and LOVE that trailer! Easy to mount and dismount bikes and the folding option is worth its weight in gold IMO.
I have a two car garage and I can still fit my bike, trailer, and FJ cruiers in just one garage. Leaves the other one open for the wife's car and bike.

They are a bit expensive so if you can find a used one you'll save a bit of money.

I tried to order some accessories from Ridegear.com to save some cash as opposed to a direct order through Kendon. BIG mistake! The worst online retailer I've ever seen. It's been one month and no communications, I've e-mailed them 10 times, called 10 times, never any answer or response. I spoke with Kendon and they gave me their contact e-mails for ridegear, it's been another week with no response. I am disputing the payment with the CC company and will be ordering it direct from Kendon.

I strongly urge everyone to stay far away from Ridegear.com

Harbor Freight Tools make ssome nice little trailers that are great for motorcycles PLUS other gear such as EZ Up, gas, compressor, etc. Works great to pull the Hyper behind my 4 cylinder Honda Accord. They too fold up and are easily stored. Cost is less than $1,000 for a trailer with the sideboards.
