The Dart and XL Trailers give you a great way to bring everything you need on your weekend or week long motorcycle trips. Today's cars are getting smaller, so the Aerodyne, Dart, and Slipstream trailers are also perfect for pulling behind your small car.
All trailers now use a 5 wire type flat plug that can also be plugged into a standard 4 wire auto plug. You can tow the Aerodyne, Dart, and Slipstream trailers with your motorcycle and car or pickup without any modifications.
Additional Wiring Information: All Timeout Campers And The Motorcycle Towable Cargo Trailers shown on our web site designed to be towed by motorcycles are currently wired using a 5 wire flat plug. Motorcycles have a separate wire for the turn signals (unlike on cars), so the trailers have a 5 wire wiring harness.
Any of the trailers on the website that have a single light module on each side, can easily be connected to a standard automotive 4 wire plug (just plug the ends together, one wire just won't connect). All the functions will work when towing the trailer with a car on these trailers (cargo trailers shown with just one light module (red) on each side).
The information above does not apply however, to the Timeout camper trailers (Timeout, Timeout Deluxe, And Easy Camper models) with two sets of light assemblies on each side (both amber and red), nor does it apply to the Dart and XL cargo trailers with both red and amber light assemblies; for any model that also has an amber turn signal assembly, contact us when ordering if you want to tow these models with a car and we will have it wired correctly for you.
When you purchase a new trailer, you will also receive a 5 wire pigtail with a flat 5 wire plug that you will wire to your motorcycle.
If you are purchasing the XL1500, or XL1800 and want to tow them with a car or pickup ONLY (XLHD cannot be wired to be towed behind a car or pick up because of the turn signals), then please note:
The XL1500 has separate amber turn signals, and XL1800 uses the Goldwing style wrap around lenses with an amber section for turn signals (on 4 wire systems the brakes will activate this and we can't have an amber tail light or brake light). If you want to tow these units with a motorcycle, then just order them and that is how they will be wired. If you want to tow them with a car or pickup, make note of this on the order form and the XL1500 will have all red lights and be wired for cars and pickups, and the XL1800 with wrap around Goldwing lights will be wired so the bulb in the amber section does not light up; once again these two trailers must be wired to be towed by either motorcycles or cars and pickups, but not both at this time.

Also now available are the XLHD and XL 1800 cargo trailers. These units feature another stylish design to give you even more choices of cargo trailers to match up with the style of virtually any bike and the needs of virtually everyone. Both the XLHD and XL1800 use the same body but the XLHD uses a rectangular integrated tail light as shown. The XL1800 uses the same tail lights as the Honda Goldwing motorcycle; if you would like that style or need the trailer to match the look of the Goldwing, then the XL1800 is for you. Note: Because of the integrated wrap around tail lights on the XL1800, and the amber tail lights on the XLHD, the tail lights on these units cannot be changed to be legally towed behind a car (needs all red lights). If you need to also tow the trailer behind a car or truck, then please see the other models on this page. If you only want to tow these models with a car or pickup, then read directly below.
All trailers now use a 5 wire type flat plug and can be plugged into a standard 4 wire auto plug. You can tow the Dart, and Slipstream trailers with your motorcycle and car or pickup. If you are purchasing the XLHD, XL1500, or XL1800 and want to tow them with a car or pickup ONLY, let us know and the units will be wired so the amber part of the lenses don't operate. If those units are set up to be pulled behind a car or truck, then they can't then be towed with a motorcycle as you won't have any turnsignals (unless you rewire the trailer lights.).
All the models listed above have a fiberglass cargo box with a powder coated steel perimeter frame and a torsion suspension system. All models have a gloss gelcoat finish in black or white standard which can be used as is; there is also the option of having the trailers painted to color match your bike.
The Dart trailer gives you 18 cubic feet of storage space, the XL models 24 cubic feet, the Aerodyne 26 cubic feet, and the Slipstream 38 cubic feet. All models easily connect to your bikes's hitch with a 1 7/8 inch ball coupler and are lightweight and easy to tow (heaviest trailer is 210 lbs. empty). Several options are available on each trailer including 1 and 2 color, paint match; in addition, and the Slipstream model can be equiped as a single sleeper camper. Canadian customers please note: these trailers are also certified for use in Canada, and the inspection fee normally required for a U.S. manufactured trailer is not required.
Please Note: All trailers are custom, made to order, because of all the available options, including custom paint match. NORMAL LEAD TIME IS 15 WORKING DAYS BEFORE SHIPMENT for the standard black or white gelcoat finish (no paint required). IF YOU WANT COLOR MATCH TO YOUR BIKE, THEN ADD 2 ADDITIONAL WEEKS.

These trailers can be pulled behind either a motorcycle or small car. Trailers come with the wiring harness for the motorcycle side that plugs into the harness on the trailer. Trailers now use a 5 wire flat style plug that can be plugged into a standard flat automotive plug when towing the unit with a car.
Please note: While the cargo trailers are priced without the trim package option listed below, (that goes on the edge of the lid, box edge and the fenders, and cooler package if you order that option) this is really a necessity as the fiberglass edge on the lid and box edge is rough looking without this. You should order at least this accessory with the trailer.

Cargo Trailer Options
Note: These trailer accessories are for the trailers we sell on this page only; there are no returns.
Please Note: The Open Cooler Package And Enclosed Cooler Package For the Cargo trailers must be ordered with a new trailer if you are interested in them. If you order your trailer with either cooler package, it will have a different frame that incorporates supports for the molded fiberglass cooler holder/air dam; if you purchased one of the cargo trailers initially without a cooler package it will not have the frame modifications to support the cooler package. The cooler packages also cannot ship UPS. If you do not have a cooler package on an existing model, then order the cooler brackets option that allows you to carry a cooler on the tongue.
A cooler Package Is No Longer Available For The Slipstream Trailer (A Cooler Rack Is Available However)
Open Cooler Package for Dart or XL1500: Open cooler package, cooler sets on platform as shown above, cooler packages need to be ordered with new trailers only, these cannot be shipped by UPS separately, and trailers that did not come with the package would not have the support braces required welded to the tongue, cooler package comes with air dam and cooler as shown - Click below for current price and availability
Enclosed Cooler package for Dart or XLHD/1800 models: includes platform/cooler box that mounts on trailer tongue, cooler is hidden in compartment with lid - Click below for current price and availability

Available Wiring Harnesses And Trailer Isolator
Trailer Wiring Harnesses And Trailer Isolator: If you purchase a new trailer from us the trailer will include a wiring harness/pigtail for the bike; as a general rule, wiring harnesses for the bike end do not come with a trailer hitch, but with the trailer. If you have a used trailer, or another brand of trailer that did not come with the wiring pigtail for the bike, then click the order form button below to see what is available.
WHWB: Wiring Pigtail For The Bike. We have available a 5 wire wiring pigtail for the bike which will have either a 5 wire flat plug on the end, or a 5 wire round plug on the end, if this is not what is on your trailer, you can either purchase the pigtail with an additional plug you can put on your trailer harness (5 wire flat or round), or e-mail us a photo if you are not sure what you have. To install this pigtail you will have to splice the 5 wires into the wires coming from the lights on your bike.
Wiring Harnesses: If you do not want to splice the wiring pigtail directly into the light wires, then we have wiring harnesses that plug into the factory harness on your bike; these harnesses are available for many models of Harley Davidson, Honda Goldwing, and the Yamaha Royal Star Venture. There is also a Universal Wiring Harness kit available. Click the order form button below to see what is available.
UIKM: Universal Trailer Isolator kit, can be used with some wiring harnesses as listed that have a connector for the isolator (some harnesses are direct connect). The 2014 Harley Davidsons have to use this isolator with a harness, as well as a HD Can Bus module (listed and available). The universal trailer isolator kit prevents any fuses being blown the the motorcycle if any of the wiring shorts out; instead, any short will burn out a fuse in the isolator only.
Click the order form button below and look on the order page for the UIKM isolator and the available sub-harnesses
Red Oblong Dart Tail Light Lense Purchase for repair, or if you intend to pull the trailers behind a car (4 wire systems on cars run the turnsignals and brake lights on the same wire, so you cannot have amber colored lenses for brake lights), for old Dart trailers with bulb style lights (new trailers use LED light assemblies) - Click the link below for current prices and availability
