Locost Single motorcycle trailer help
I need some locost ideas!!!
Ive got an Erde PM310 single motorcycle trailer but no where to store it. Same as in this pic
I have a narrow alley that leads to my back garden
I can, and have, struggled to carry it down the alley to store in the garden but im getting too old for that so i need an idea!
I plan to turn it onto its side.......and make/buy/find some sort of device with wheels on that i can place under the side of the trailer and pull it
along the alley to the garden on its side
Any ideas???

A butchered tesco trolley ?
Give a man a fish & it will feed him for a day, give him a fishing rod & you've saved a fish.

get some wheel barrow wheels,.. plastic centre ones are about £10 ea or so,. mount them onto the side of the trailer so that it can be tipper onto
it's side and then wheeled down the alley.
If they are permanently on the trailer then the temptation will be to do the job properly rather than struggle,,....

I'm liking the wheelbarrow wheel idea! How would I mount them to the trailer? I would need them to be removable

Just sell it and get one of the those motolug ones that fold up.

Not exactly locost though, unless you get a good price for your current one.

Mount the spare trailer wheel on a hub attached to the outrigger so it sticks out of the side, then when you flip the trailer it runs along on the
spare.

A local guy has some castors bolted on the back of his garden trailer. I stood thinking that looked a little strange until one day I see him push it
down his passage on its end and the penny dropped.

Make a wheel clamp and fit castors to it. Two birds with one stone.....

We got one of these eBay Item for trundling stuff around the side of the house, the sides unclip so perfect and useful for other
stuff.
Get it as a present for the SWMBO
