Talon Trailer size?

[jcarr343]

I need to pickup a 1000R later this week and will have to rent a trailer for now. Will this one fit? Only need to go about 1.5 hours loaded.

A stock R will fit on a 6X12 with a tailgate. It will fit on a 6X10 without a tailgate. That catalog only says 74 inches wide but does not say how long. It has a tailgate/ramp so as long as it is at least 12 feet, you will be OK.

Hard to tell from the spec sheet, but it is a 10' trailer with a lift gate.

Won't fit an R, it is a couple inches too short. You need something at least 10' 6" for the R and that is cutting it close. I suggest a 12'.

I have an aluma 7712 and I havent had any issue with it at all

Anyone else with tilt trailer experience?

Yes, and it was a piece of crap, I left it in @Tramguage1 ‘s yard and went home with a new 14’ tandem with brakes. The only way I could load up on the tilt was to back on to it, the weight is greater to the rear of the sxs and it wouldn’t return to horizontal if I pulled on, shrug.....

I have the same trailer, I love mine. The extra width allows for easy tie-down and getting in/out the Talon.

ive only had mine for about 2 weeks, trying to decide on what type of straps i want to use. not sure if i want to cut a hole in a 3k trailer

 

[Fyathyrio]

I went with these, there's four to the set, they have keepers on the hooks to prevent coming off if the suspension takes a big bounce & slacks the strap, they come with double loop straps to wrap around frame or trailer as needed, and even include velcro straps to wrap up the free end of the tie down and keep it from flapping in the wind.

I like those. thanks for the info

Got a 14x83 fits perfectly and used the e track tie down system best ever.

I have a 7 x12 aluminum trailer with bi-fold ramp, always go bigger than you think you need.
