Default Towing moto x bike and trailer. Passed test 2007

Basically next year I want to get a crf 250....

But being 19 I dont have a full trailer towing licence.

Am I able to pull a single bike trailer with a bike on with my restriction? IIRC there is a 750kg limit? which a single trailer and bike won't weigh more than.


Cheers

there's laws, i dont know what they are, but to be honest, if your going steady and everything is hooked up properly, the chances of you getting pulled are slim, to ZERO.

just do it

If its got breaks on the trailer you cant pull it, so anything under 750kg! so i got told anyway.

I asked a traffic copper this and he even got his book out and still couldnt tell me!
