I am thinking of buying a Bike trailer for my 1200GS. I need something that will allow me to load it without help. Any suggestions?

I have owned 2 LazyLowder Trailers.
Very good quality and very easy to use.
Can recommend them anytime.

Kobus, I trailer my bikes as well when the need arises Laughing .....no problem there.......

like Deon, I'm also sold on the 2M SporTrailer aka Lazy-Lowder.

Truly a one man operation, and built to last......bit on the heavy side though but if you have a suitable tow vehicle, it's not an issue. The last mentioned is also a plus as it only means the trailer is of sturdy construction. A fair bit of flex occurs in the trailer when driving with the bike on and some of the "lighter" trailers tend to bend with a resultant uneven tire wear.

Not the cheapest, in fact the 2M is probably the most expensive trailer

If you are still not satisfied, phone the guys that do bike transporting for a living and see what they use.........I have done it and the majority uses 2M.

Lastly, a 2M trailer (don't know about the others) can be customized to your needs.

trust this will be of help

Ditto - sold my other bike trailer and bought a 2M - worth the price.
