Looks nice. I have the same trailer. I dont know how long mine is (24? 26?), but I can fit 7-8 wheelers in mine. Heater is a must in MN!
I was going to camper up the front of mine, but found it towed like crap unless you carry the wheelers in front.
It's good to be an American isn't it?!

I wouldn't mind "campering up" mine too but don't know what to do about the bathroom stuff. Can you buy a toilet setup kit? The fold down couches on the walls wouldn't be that big a trick so that's doable.

Most larger cities have an RV wrecking yard or two. You may find what you want in the way of a bathroom system in one of them. For one bus I converted I was able to buy the complete fiberglass bathroom (sink, stool, shower/tub) from a wrecked trailer. Put it in place and built the walls around it. Quick and easy and way less expensive than buying individual parts and trying to make everything water tight.

Hey, good idea. I'll check it out.

Edit: At the time of the modifications I also put in a couple of drain lines accessible thru the access door to make winterizing easier. If I do this kind of conversion again I'll put the water heater, pump and fresh water tank in the same area to make maintenance and drain down easier as well.

Chris, how does you Sportsman ride with just tying down the machine to the D rings? My preferred method is to tie down around the tires and leave the ATV suspension to flex as needed. The problem now that I made the switch to an enclosed trailer, is that it is going to be a lot tougher to get straps around the outboard tires. I am still undecided how I will secure mine at this point, so I am looking for ideas and feed back from peoples experiences.

see the bungge cord ... I hook it to each end of the strap. This keeps the hooks from coming undone.
Also keep the tie downs low ... and it will ride great!
