Full time w/ motorcycles?

The wife and I are seriously considering going full-time. The wrinkle with us is that we want to take 2 motorcycles with us, a Harley Ultra Classic and a Can-Am Spyder RT. Here are some of our initial thoughts on our wants:
  • Class A motorhome
  • Motorhome purchase less than $50k
  • trailer the bikes


I don't think I can afford a toy hauler motorhome. I don't want a 5th wheel.

Is there anyone on the forum that tows an enclosed trailer with their motorhome that would be willing to communicate with me about their experiences?

Thanks, Doug

Don't see any difference between pulling a toad, or a trailer with cycles. We see many either in CGs, or on the road. Just keep it reasonable, and within the load ratings for your hitch.

We know several folks that have Motorhones and full-time pulling a trailer. As already said you may run into length restrictions in some states. Also, finding a campground that can accommodate the length may be a little restrictive, depending on the length of the combo. I know is some you'll have to park the trailer somewhere other than your site.

I see CLASS A MH's towing enclosed trailers quite often. If others can do it, you can do. The only thing I would advise you check into before purchasing your combination of MH and trailer is the over-all length of the combined rig. Every state has a length restriction. Follow the rules of your state and you will be fine.
