Noobi with trailer
« on: February 28, 2015, 07:39:02 PM »
Picked up my Made Den China today pretty happy with it couple little issues nothing that can't be fixed with a file or spanner
Made the ultimate rookie mistake and left  the jockey wheel down rushing to put it away before the storm hit ,
But nothing I was not expecting , towed very well  , have not had a chance to open her up yet so I'll have to report back tomorrow
Motor bikes are my passion, camping is the bonus so I don't have to come home .

Yep that jockey wheel thing , now I have to leave it hooked up to the tug  , not a bad thing in my book ;) 
Just got to add 4 more power outlets , 3 strip lights, one in each box , and plug on the DB for charging
Fold up a custom shelf for the kitchen and a bag for the  annex for external storage and I think she'll be done .

And double check and loctite all bolts

G'day mate and welcome to myswag.  Congrats on the new CT  :cup:  Hope you have many happy camping adventures.

Give the bearings a quick check and make sure they are greased and adjusted correctly.

Happy camping

So no pic of the CT yet , I've already add 2 new power out let's lights in the tool box and fridge box , checked electrical and added  weather proof storage bag for the annex.which now lives on top of the fridge box
Just got to check the wheel bearings and breaks , and loctite all bolts . I now just have to add a couple more power outlets
One more for the kitchen and one at the bed head.
