Only used on weekends by a little old man going to the church of the open road.

GLWS for the infamous Hippo.

Seems like a "fly and ride" is in the works for someone. Remember to have a spare tire and bearing assembly for that Bushtec if you are going a long way. 1911's awesome story of his Alaska ride pointed that out. What a deal for someone who want's to do some serious travelling.

There is another oh crap, I gota say no Dam it! Dam good deal bug, GLWS!

Good lord, Dougie! Didn't see this coming, esp at that kinda price.

Gayle enhanced your touring experience for a lotta miles over the years you've owned that 'potamus, . . . but she ain't going back to harrses, is she? (You poor bastid.) 

So, whatcha gonna repace it with? (And don't BS us with "just thinning the herd".) 

Lotsa touring bike and accessories for that price! GLWS

Spare tire and tube included. Bearings were the first item I replaced when purchased  the trailer. About 5 bucks each at my local NAPA dealer, wish every repair was that cheap.

Nope no horses, she's remodeling the kitchen which is cheaper than a horse in the long run. The S10 can pull double duty for a while.

Not looking for an argument here, but I thought I remembered that 1911 had trouble locating bearings when his broke down on his trip and he had to find a Bushtec dealer.  Ha, maybe different model years or something. Good luck with the sale.

A bit off topic but after three bushtec trailers I found they all took the same bearing and another thing I found was that the spacer in between the bearings was to short. This causes a side load when the axle nut in tightened and single row ball bearings do NOT like side loads. I machined proper length spacers and have not had a bearing failure since. I still carry a couple spares just to cover my backside.

Somebody will get a hell of a deal on this package. The bike alone is worth the money and I sold my bushtec ultimate which is smaller than the turbo for 1500.00.
