Blackie, we had one of these & I worked a treat...you do need to add some rope/straps to stop the wobble but still a great unit.

lol She has good taste in women! Im looking for something to mount a 4 stroke onto the Ultimate but they don't have a 2 prong drawbar as such, thinking I might remove the spare tyre off the back and do something there!

I had a Gal box made and it slips up inside my trailer. Keeps it out of the weather and off the drawbar where they can get damaged or stolen.

Hi,
   I have a small Honda 4stroke that can only be put down on one side.


The New Inventors had a bit on line some years ago that may interest you.


cheers

That one is a two stroke, I just run it dry when I flush it out (i.e. unhook the fuel line and wait till it coughs). But Ive never had any problems. I would have thought that 4 strokes would be a different story.
