Wonder what the maximum speed allowed is with a trailer? Looks like it has all the wiring hookups for brakes and all in the pic.

...and on the 12th day ninja turtle gods made a high-speed trailer for the ZX-12R (nice toy!  )...posted maximum speed-limit for ALL vehicles pulling trailers in the U.S. of A. is 55 MPH, period!...violators have paid the price in more ways than one....

He was at gap1 and rode through the gap with trailer in tow! I met him but don't remember his name.

I remember that guy. In his defence, he seemed to handle the thing pretty well going through the gap, but NO WAY was I gonna let him ride right behind me! I'd hate to see what that thing could do to your braking distances. The bike does seem to have enough power to pull that trailer. 
He had every bell and whistle I've ever seen on a bike, all kinds of lights and strobes, lotsa chrome, etc.... Way too much for my taste.

Awesome trailer setup Beans.
Where did you find that picture?
A 12 with a sidecar and front steering swingarm was the only other whacky thing I've ever seen done to one.

I was in that group also. Handled pretty good too. He was one of the Alabama boys. Got some pics around here somewhere.
Been considering one of these.

I remember the guy.....
I remember that guy and his bike from the Gap1 rally. Big Mike videotaped the bike one night when we were at Alcoa. That fucking bike had a lot of stuff on it. Strobes, neon, polished parts, chromed parts, freakin' condom dispenser,.......too much shit IMHO. But it was kinda neat to look at all the things he'd done to the bike. He was a nice fella. I freaked out when we were down at the store (Deals Gap) and I saw him pulling in with the trailer and pocketbike in tow. I figured that was something he did around town for kicks. I never dreamed he'd have pulled that thing through the gap. Not me, I'd fuck up in a major way if I tried to pull a trailer through the gap. Of course if that guy could do it........................

THe matching pocketbike was cool too.

I was there for that one too. Not that I would haul a trailer through the gap, but I thought it was pretty cool. Different for sure. I took a few pics of it at the hotel.
