Are you talking like a “homemade” going to the local tip trailer or a beefed up more capable weight carrying trailer?

??? class! [emoji108]

Taken from a site off google, should help ya and is pretty clear for ya [emoji106] you just need to be careful when combining your weights thats main thing, but this is all dependant on what age you are and what licence you hold. But the plated weight must not be exceeded in any case. Towing - the legal bits Whether you’re planning a caravanning holiday or moving house, you need to make sure you comply with the law on towing. Restrictions differ on when your driving licence was issued. Licences issued from 1 January 1997 If you passed your car driving test on or after 1 January 1997 you can: Drive a car or van up to 3,500kg maximum authorised mass (MAM) towing a trailer of up to 750kg MAM Tow a trailer over 750kg MAM as long as the combined MAM of the trailer and towing vehicle is no more than 3,500kg MAM is the limit on how much the vehicle can weigh when it’s loaded. You have to pass the car and trailer driving test if you want to tow anything heavier - this is called a B+E test. You might need several lessons before you’re ready to take the test. Licences issued before 1 January 1997 If you passed your car test before 1 January 1997 you’re usually allowed to drive a vehicle and trailer combination up to 8,250kg MAM. You’re also allowed to drive a minibus with a trailer over 750kg MAM. And a little extra to add in also...... What does towing capacity mean? Most cars have a maximum weight that they can tow safely and legally. The first thing to do is make sure that what you wish to tow doesn’t exceed the trailer's own maximum authorised mass or the car's maximum towing capacity; both figures should be easy to find in the drivers manual. There are usually two maximum towing weights that will be specified: a braked trailer weight and an unbraked one. It’s important to note that if the trailer weight is more than 750kg or over half the car’s kerb weight (this is the weight of the car without people or luggage inside and should be listed in the manual), the trailer must be fitted with brakes. The second important thing to point out is the maximum capacity will also include the weight of the trailer/caravan/horsebox itself, so you’ll need to add that into the equation when thinking about how much weight you can transport.

What licence do you hold?

Plated weight

If its 30yds away from you then its a no brainer! You’ll get back what you fork out in security measures in no time, simply from saving fuel and time travelling to somewhere else, plus you can keep your eye on everything ?

Had this on my 026 running a 16” bar, turned out for me that the bar was faulty, it was a laminated rollomatic E bar and the nose sprocket was starting to nip up as a result of the bar being bent / stressed, puzzled me for a while and was blaming a dull chain but the new bar cured it.

Do i need to find an english teaching gnome for ya? [emoji6]
