Wow, Both those trailers are beauties,and worth the money.
They are priced right, the one in Brunswick is a corker. Do you use search tempest or yakaz to search c.l.? Thanks, David.

Big Mac,
Thanks for posting this!
I have been scouring the earth for one of these for some time and missed out on one last year by literally minutes. As soon as I read your post I contacted the owner-Dave Wright on the one in Brunswick, GA and it was still available. I immediately committed to purchase and will be picking it up this weekend, Dave was even nice enough to meet me half way on the delivery:D What a deal!

Dave,
You have to watch those sneaky Texans as they sometomes cheat the start. Just ask Ron Carbaugh about some Texans he has known. LOL! Congrats Tom! Nice trailer. Now about borrowing it....:D

Tom Flores, I will bet that Dave Wright is the person who was from Avon Suzuki. Tell him I said "Hi!" He and Avon Suzuki helped me out tremendously throughout my racing career. Any chance of picking up a Berkshire in Dry Creek, LA. and holding it for me until we meet up again. Do you have plans to attend the Mid-Ohio VMD event this year? Joe Novak.
Joe,
I thought he might be the same Dave as well but he is not. I also know the Avon Dave Wright as well, you may recall they had a lawnmower shop next to the Suzuki shop and I actually helped out there one summer repairing lawnmowers and also bought a RM 125B off of Dave at a very special price. He also helped me out on parts and racing. He was at the RR in Ohio last year and we had a great time reminiscing. I was part of Flying Team Dump with my buddy Marty Mackey who rode Kawasaki's

Does anyone in POG live close to White Lake Michigan? I need to pick up a Husky but can't get to it right now. Just curious, thanks in advance!
Kip,
There is a bike I have been keeping an eye on in Yale Mi, about 80 miles from White Lake. If the time frame is not an issue, and the bike I am looking at is still there, I may make a trip up there in about a month or so. Mike

Tom - Back to topic, glad to hear this helped your search end with a great score on what looks like a super nice trailer. Someone posted a Craigs List HP trailer here 18 mos ago and I was grateful to get the line on it and buy it. So keep paying the love forward.
BTW, I paid $2k for a real good condition but smaller '88 model, which was about a 1,000 mile roundtrip to bring it home...so either of these look like a steal in my mind.
If POG guys keep this up, all the HP trailers across the country will be freed of Harley Davidson Dynaglides and once again be blissfully piloted by old dirt guys toting Pentons, KTMs and maybe the occasional vintage Husky.
