I wanted to build a small Cargo Trailer light enough to tow behind my motorcycle. My wife and I do a lot of multi-state traveling for 1 to 4 weeks at a time and while staying at hotels is nice it does get expensive. So to bring the cost down we decided to camp out some nights.

With a small cargo trailer, I'm able to pack more items for a month-long trip than to try and fit it all on the motorcycle. Also whether it's a tent or a cooler, I am very aware of what everything weighs before I pack it.

Having this small cargo trailer has allowed us to travel via the motorcycle with more freedom and avenues to explore.

Weight of Trailer before additions: 151 lbs.
Weight of Trailer after additions: 220 lbs.
Total weight of Trailer with camping items: 320 lbs
Tongue weight with packed Cooler: 33 lbs.
