My daily driver. This was at the Outer Banks in NC. If you look close you can see my wife peeking out the sun roof.

if I had a bumper sticker on my bike it would say "My other car is a 2001 Dodge Intrepid" Just finishing up a 2.7 to 3.5 conversion in her the car is clean but the 2.7 is shit if you have the chance to get a LH series Chrysler and it has a 2.7 in it RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that motor is a piece of shit. While the 3.5 was out I changed damn near everything timing belt, water pump, thermostat, oil pan gasket, valve cover gaskets intake manifold and upper plenum gaskets EGR valve gaskets gonna put K&N Cold Air Intake on her. Stock I gain 45hp over the 2.7 and with the shorter gear ratio in the trans for the 2.7 she'll get up and go. Any who here is a pic of the 3.5 right after I dropped it in

and here's a pic 3hrs later waiting for a new radiator b/c the 3.5 has oil cooler lines that run to the radiator while the 2.7 does not.

I thought those things were front wheel drive.
But I'm looking at a longitudinally mounted engine.

The more you know.
 
JohnnyD, how much does trailer weigh with bike?

The trailer weights only 320# and the bike (XB9SX) only weighs 390#, not including fuel and oil. So, you are looking at a little over 710#. I have a class one hitch, and the car is rated for 1,500#.

The trailer and bike tows well, haven't had any issues with this setup.
 
My daily driver is a 2011 E350 Ford Van. Isn't that the coolest vehicle ever? And my other vehicles are a 1965 Ford F100, 1967 Volkswagen Baja Bug, 1989 Toyota Corolla, 2003 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2007 Suzuki Boulevard C90, and of course my 2009 Buell Firebolt. I think that's all. My parents are so pissed about me keeping my vehicles at their house since I don't have room a mine. I also have my two jet skis there. I'll try to post some pics in a little while. I think I have pics of everything but my Suzuki.

I don't have pics of the 65 ford and the suzuki. I'm sure I don't need to take a pic of the van.
