Default I just towed my enclosed motorcycle trailer 300 miles...

I thought you might be interested in a quick report. Everything worked perfect with the allroad. Outside temperature was over 80 degrees and my speed was too. Got around 13 mpg ran the air-conditioning and the water temperature was normal. I had the height setting on the second position as per manual on the road, I put it in third position when pulling into the open pit area. I forgot to lower it when I left and when I checked it on the highway it had reset itself to the second position just like it should all in the manual mode very nice. Trailer weights close to 2000lbs loaded and has brakes. Just like at Mosport the allroad got the same attention my bike did and that is saying a lot.

Which trailer do you have? What speed could you comfortably pull?

By the way, I love the 908ssp. My 900ss-sp & 916 get jealous.

Not that I would ever drive any faster... ;-), but I-5 from the Bay Area down to Buttonwillow is kind of a long dull race... against boredom!

An F150-v8 is usually comfortable at 95, with 2 bikes and a weekend's pit gear. I'm assuming the allroad with the trailer would be too, but I wonder what the fuel economy would be...
