    SoCal Tear Drop Owners! Post up!

    Wow, haven't been on this forum in over a year! Too busy building trailers :) Anyways, yes the tanks and the water system are definitely "potable". The confusion may come from discussing my personal methods and camping habits. I, personally, do not use the on-board water for drinking. Main...

    SoCal Tear Drop Owners! Post up!

    Door Seal Kevin, Send us an email regarding your door seal... A photo or two of the area in question will help us determine what to do about it. As always, I don't get to this forum all that often, too busy building trailers and camping with my son's Cub Scout pack. E-mailing or calling the...

    Clipless Pedals

    Anyone who recommends anything but shimano (or clones) for clipless spends more time looking at and weighing their bike than they do riding it... Get 'em and ride...

    TE630 Husqvarna: The Scout

    hmmm... Well, there goes the neighborhood... I was happy, not being a member of the "pumpkin" patch, discretely riding around on a bike that not many could identify... Is it a Honda? A red KTM? No, that dork put red and white plastics on a Yamaha! I've heard them all... Now, that the God...

    Bivouac Bravo... Off Road Trailer for Motorcycles / Build Thread

    I'll give you one piece of advice... While the "silver coke" is OK for the ADVRider or Pirate crowd, you should probably stage some of that fancy, hoppy, I'm-better-than-you beer in a glass bottle when taking pictures for this crowd ;)

    2003 Astro Van AWD--Lifted!

    The bumper on this thing is nothing short of AMAZING! Brad is going to build one for my 2500HD (hint, hint...) :) Nice fridge slide, BTW...

    Fridge/Stove combo slide dilemma

    The So-Cal version of the slide does use a standard 18" or 22" Partner Steel stove with lid and windscreen. The stove is indeed "mounted" to the slide and does not need to be "removed" to access the knobs. We mount the stove on a hinged "elevator", you simply lift up on the stove and it pivots...

    Camping Pads , Cots, Ect.. What are you motorcycle riders using?

    I've used a LuxuryLite cot since they came out... The first version was a little finicky and hard to turn over on (I'm a side sleeper and I flop alot), I upgraded to the second version and it was much better. I understand the newest versions are even better still. It was very comfortable...

    Alternative to camper jacks and brackets?

    Teardrop Trailer Build

    You are correct. Some people like to over think things. You should ask the people who are building your trailer, they should know...

    off road teardrop build and introduction

    HA! Never thought anyone actually lived in Puyallup :) That has got to be my favorite town name. Every time I drive through there I spend the next 45 minutes muttering it to myself, wondering how is SUPPOSED to be pronounced.

    2014's "Husqvarna" enduros.

    I'm really "bothered" by the trend of moving away from a kickstart backup... E-start is awesome! when it works... Just got back from 4 days in the desert, the last two days I relied on the kicker after the magic smoke escaped from my starter. My ride would have been done without a kickstart...

    1979 Bluebird Wanderlodge for sale

    My mom has almost the EXACT same bus. These things are really cool and I've been fantasizing about owning one for while now... Does it have the PA system with the songbook? Wish you were a little closer so I could crawl around in it and get so excited I just HAVE to buy it :) A pusher would...
