Trailer Size? Pioneer 1000-3

[Fatsquatch]

Live and learn, lol. thanks

Sometimes POIDH (pics or it didn’t happen) really does help. I almost made the same mistake of getting the trailer with the ramp until I saw it in person. I happened to have a tape measure in the van and it quickly changed my mind.

This is my Talon on a 14' trailer (7" longer than a P1K). Since it was my first SxS, I had no idea where I was headed with the hobby so I went a little longer than minimum (if you have the room to store it, you won't be sorry).

Loaded for travel. I get by with a single axle but I'm right up against the 3500 lb. axle rating when fully loaded.

I had to add holes to the ramp holding straps to move it back far enough to reduce my tongue weight with a full load of fuel. Since I didn't know what I needed, I added 4 holes but cut 2 off later, one at a time. As the Prez said above, controlling tongue weight might be a problem with a shorter trailer. I also didn't know that I'd be adding a bed extender/spare carrier.

Don’t get the ramp version. It absolutely will.

I have the 2019 Honda 1000-3 EPS and my trailer is an aluminum Beartrack 76" x 144". Fits perfect.

Perhaps they are different here, no idea, FYI.

Yea, they are bigger there 'cause meters are longer than yards ...

I have a Rance Rough Rider (nohomo) RRU6512SA. It's a 6.5' x 12' all aluminum (wood or alum decking avaiable) single axle trailer that only weighs 660#. The GWVR is 2990#, so the payload capacity is 2330#, which is the weight of the 1000 plus about 500-600# depending upon what kind of crap you have installed on the buggy.

If you want metric, you can do the math. But it fits nicely, even with wider than stock tires & wheels and wheel spacers on all four wheels.

What size tires? On the Van???

That all good Remington but what is important is what kind of gas is in the van

Almost certainly 87 octane (up to E10 I believe)

Thank goodness I was afraid it was mid grade

 

[Fatsquatch]

Thank goodness I was afraid it was mid grade

Hell no. lol. I’ll even run the 88 octane stuff that is like E20 or so when the price difference is significant and I’m at a station that carries it.

Nice Rumble Bee and a great color. Nice trailer too. I just have an old steel 6.5 x 12 with wood floors that we use for just about everything. Even pull it behind the P1K-3.

In Trudeau Utopia land?
Wouldn't surprise us a bit!

LOL, he is an embarassing twat

Yeah, we have one of those too.

 

[Fatsquatch]

Yeah, we have one of those too.

Sad troof!

I have a 6 x10 trailer for my p5 And it's just right. My suggestion would be to go longer and at least a half foot wider. Also by adding double tandem gives you better breaking.

 

[Scrappapotamus]

Several of my trailers

 

[NorthernJoe]

Yeah, we have one of those too.

yes but is your MIP (moron in power) look like as good as ours?

I bought this 14 footer brand new for $1700 and it is made for UTV's. It has been great.

I just went thru this for my Honda 700, and settled on a Karavan 6.8 x 13 trailer. I love the drop sides, and at 80" it's wide enough I can walk around it while loaded. Might be a little tighter width wise with the 1000 but your tires won't hit the rails.

It's a single axle with about 2300 lbs of payload available, which should be enough for the 1000 and some gear.

What size trailer?

Since we are already on the subject of towing... What size trailer would I need for my Mini Cooper to tow my P500? The Mini Cooper is red if it helps. ;) The same as for the CRV: You could rattle can spray it red...

Happy with the extra couple feet at either end. Given a choice I'd rather have the 16' dual axle, but I know this can go behind a fifth wheel when we get around to upgrading the RV in a year or so.
