    My mornings paper has an article of a Bike Wreck, and the wife was
    killed.
    It happened up in Idabel, Oklahoma.
    His Harley was dragging a trailer.
    The story went on to say, he apparantly lost control, and went down, and
    the dern trailer flipped forward and struck both. He was seriously hurt,
    but was airlifted. She died hours later.
    This is the third such accident, involving a bike pulling a trailer, in
    about 1 1/2 years, around my area.
    Personally I would'nt have a trailer.
    What say you?

    sides and back.

    And is it on the same page, that you must have an F150 Pickup, with the
    Harley Davidson emblem on the back window? ;)

    For real, there's a guy out here that must have the advanced poser's manual.
    He has a wrought iron gate and over that gate is the Harley Davidson emblem.
    He also has one of those HD transport trailers (carries 6 bikes, I think).
    He probably uses it to haul his and his friend's HDs to Sturgis, the ROT
    Rally and all the small rallies around here. The trailer is always parked
    in a conspicuous location. He wouldn't want anyone not to see it, right?

    I plum didnt think of that. I guess they'd have to have a tarp tied over
    it with bungee cords, reckon. Boy, that could really be a problem.<g>

    :>> This is very insulting to us Harley owners.
    :>> Everybody should know that you can just use any type of trailer.
    :>> If its for a Harley it must be enclosed so other posers cant see you are
    :>> trailering your Harley.
    :>
    :> Yeahbut the trailer has the "Harley Davidson" emblem, painted on the front,
    :> sides and back.

    : You are right, I forgot about that requirement :)
    : This stuff is very important and it is outlined on page 4 in the poser
    : manual. I got 4 copies just to make sure I dont miss any poser points.

    Yep, it's right after the warning that serious injury or death may occur.

    (Oh wait, that's on every page)
