I assume the nose weight of your trailer may have something to do with it.
Now there's an interesting point ( if you are a farmer that is ) why don't Suzuki et-al add to the door post tyre pressure idiogram one representing a fully laden 4 wheel sheep and cattle transporter.

That would be useful. The 12ft is actually really well balanced unless you deliberately upset it. It's also a bit big for Dreadnaught, it would have a payload of 200kg on the road if I ever went out with it. However I do have a decent drive with my little twin loaded up tomorrow.

So Guys & Gals, had a 'Pre' MOT (up in November) inspection today and all good save a replacement slam panel had to be ordered!
I went to my local Suzuki dealer and asked them to look for any issues regarding towing (I would have looked myself but didn't fancy crawling underneath while she's parked on the road ! The smashing guy, Paul, let me come in while he checked everything.. I told him I had a slight 'shimmy' so he checked the kingpins and said they were solid. I mentioned fitting a steering damper and he agreed it wouldn't make things worse (He is a qualified MOT inspector) so I dropped lucky there didn't I?
So has anyone any recommendations for a specific kit?
Cheers

If you can fabricate yourself
(it's an easy job)
And will cost you half the price of a kit
