We have had a very busy year this year - you can probably tell by the lack of updates! We have not even had chance to finish development of our off road trailer.
We will not be at any more shows this year - but spending our time ito preparing for next years season and getting the off road trailer finished.
10-5-11 Is it May already! - Heads down making trailers - the website updates have gone out the window a bit - catching up now though. Was hoping to launch the TrailMAX at the Bury show - but it will be a bit later now - no problems - just working on orders for the TourMAX. The new 2011 TourMAX chassis is beautiful :-)
1-3-11 Cardo Scala G4 Version 3.00 software with NEW features available for download in our Motorcycle Tourer store - click the link above.
28-1-11 First seek peek at what is on the drawing board for our adventure trailer. Anybody got any good suggestions for a name for this one?
28-1-11 New CAD drawings of our chassis are under way as we are making new laser cut production jigs this winter.
19-11-10 In an effort to bring you the best of the products available we will shortly be adding the Sena SMH10 bluetooth headset to our product range. Full details in our Motorcycle Tourer online shop - Click Here.
3-11-10 We have just added an Ex Display (Click here) section to our online shop where we will be putting some of our ex display items in the coming weeks.
29-10-10 - End of Season Event at Gas Moto - 30th October
UNFORTUNATELY WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ATTEND THIS EVENT
We are very sorry but we won't be able to make Gas Moto's open day now - we have some other commitments which mean we won't be able to attend on that day. If you would like to come and see us you are welcome to contact us and make an appointment and we will be pleased to show you our trailers.

As we have just had to cancel our attendance at GasMoto right at the last minute it occurs that we should make more use of our Twitter account - so we can let you know if there are any last minute changes. We are not big twitter users - as you will see - but it does mean we can let you know if anything happens. |
15-10-10 The last of the big shows are behind us now but we do hope to be at the Gas Moto dealers in Haverhill, Suffolk on the 30th October for their end of season open day. We have also at last started work on our Motorcycle Tours Directory site (Click here) where we hop to list all the tour companies we can find together with all the information you need all in one place. If anybody can recommend any companies or accommodation please let us know.
10-07-10 This year is just flying by! Three shows under our belt already. The Royston show was amazing. Busy fulfilling orders and trying to work in the design work for our adventure trailer and rack trailer - hopefully we will be launching one of these at the Winbotsham show later this year.
12-5-10 Our first show of the season is just around the corner now. The first of this years trailers is just about to go out and its all swinging into action for what will hopefully be a sunny and dry summer - fingers crossed.
12-03-10 - We have just updated our sister site - Motorcycle Tourer with basically our Mono-Trail online shop - HOWEVER the Motorcycle Tourer shop is the one that will be expanded to include a whole range of luggage and other touring equipment. Brands on sale will include all the Baglux equipment, the Kappa luggage system - which is the same luggage as Givi but without the premium price tag, clothing from Bering and the excellent SW-Motech luggage equipment. We have a newsletter signup there where we will be offering regular discount coupons to use in the shop - starting with the Scala Rider and Schuberth Intercoms. Please do sign up to see what we will have on offer - we promise it will be worth your while!!
11-3-10 I hope the weather warms up before the clocks change - fed up with the cold now...
The Tow Vee is turning out very expensive to produce - lovely bit of engineering - if I say so myself - but not cost effective. Back partially to the drawing board - we have an alternative design which works just as well that looks like it will be a fraction of the price to produce. CAD drawings for prototyping are being done now so we will see what comes back from that.
19-01-10 2009 was great. Looking forward to the rest of this year. New premises being converted, our "Tow Vee" design is nearly complete and we are already gearing up for this years production. The Scala Rider G4 is launched in the UK this weekend and should have stock in our shop from Monday 25th onwards.
23-11-09 All quiet on the western front - as they say. It's giving us some time to get some stock manufactured for next year. Also pressing on with development of our "Tow Vee" - a direct replacement for the standard tow hitch.
4-10-09 Copdock Classic Bike Show - What a fantastic day. We missed launching at the Copdock show last year but made it this year! Thankfully the weather was great which I'm sure brought in record numbers for the show. A big thank you to the people who traveled from afar to see us - we hope it was worth the traveling and we answered all your questions.
31-08-09 - Fenman Classic Bike Show - What a great show that was. Weather stated out a bit iffy but soon turned into a fantastically hot and sunny day - which really brought everyone out. Many thanks to those of you who made a special journey out to see us. Loads of interest and comments - and some food for thought for us for our next model. The classic bikes were amazing - already looking forward to next year!!
11-08-09 - Just back from our summer break and its all systems go to get caught up. Newest hitch fitments for release are:- Yamaha XJR 1300 (Hollow rear axle)
19-07-09 - Thetford & District Motorcycle Club Show - Great turn out - but again down came the rain. Also quite blustery at times - we lost our stand right at the end of the show - along with several other stands. No-one hurt though.
07-06-09 - Bury St.Edmunds Bike Show - Once again a huge amount of interest in the trailers - between the showers!
23-05-09 - Revised stand now made and tested. Brilliant. There is no way the trailer is ever going to tip now. Very quick and simple to fit / remove. We have also increased the rising rate on the suspension a bit more to allow for maximum loads.
21-05-09 - Revised stand now complete. We have decided to use a pair of additional feet to be fitted and removed as required. Of all the options we designed this one gave the best stability and most versatility. Not quite as convenient as a sprung loaded side stand (which is what we were originally aiming for) - but stronger and far more stable, especially if you are in the middle of a field somewhere!
14-05-09 - Just reworking the stand for the trailer. The bar we currently have on the front does not really give enough stability when the trailer is detached from the bike if there was a gale...
10th May 2009 The Mono-Trail TourMAX is launched at the
Suffolk Ride Show in Felixstowe
The Mono-Trail Tour MAX trailer was reveled at the Suffolk Ride Show at Felixstowe on Sunday 10th May. It was a truly awesome day - not just because the weather was good but see peoples reactions - especially those who had been following us via the web site.
May we take this opportunity to thank everyone for their kind comments that were made and the many wishes of success. We are very pleased that you all like the trailer so much and the numerous comments about the high build quantity confirming our decision to build a quality item and not down to a price. |
