Motorcycle Trailers

Monday, May 18th, 2009

So, you love the rumble of your hog as you strut your pride while driving down Sunset Strip as the sun sets on a warm summer night.  People turn their heads before you get to them because of the hum and thump of your Harley-Davidson Road King Classic motorcycle reaches their ears like a prelude to the visual feast that your motorcycle brings to all.  I know you ride to live and live to ride, but it is a long haul to Sturgis, MI and do you really want all those miles on your bike when the real fun is being their?  I don’t think so.  The best way to get your motorcycle to Sturgis is in a great looking motorcycle trailer that will not only get you there but get it done in style.  The Aluminum Trailer Company designs their motorcycle trailers with quality and style in mind.  They come with wheel chocks, custom build aluminum cabinets, and a great stereo/DVD player with 4 speakers.  The outside of the motorcycle trailer is built with a screwless exterior to give it a smooth look, and great looking aluminum spoke wheels.  When you pull up with your ATC motorcycle trailer, people will crane their heads in anticipation as you open the ramp door and pull your hog out.  Your ATC aluminum motorcycle trailer will be a great way to protect your investment as you get to your location so you can ride with a group and have the time of your life.  You can take lots of pictures and post them on the Sturgis rally page and have people admire your hog and your motorcycle trailer for years to come.

SPECIAL OFFER: We are running a promotion on a motorcycle trailer…check it out!

Motorcycle trailer with a full perimeter frame

Monday, March 9th, 2009

The Aluminum Trailer Company (ATC) has been building an all aluminum motorcycle trailer since early 2001.  ATC builds an all aluminum frame motorcycle trailer and offers the best fit and finish available.  ATC ’s sales, engineering and production teams work together to design and manufacture the best motorcycle trailer on the market.

ATC has designed its motorcycle trailer with a full perimeter frame. We have a motorcycle trailer strong enough to handle your fully decked out bikes without the need for steel reinforcements.  This unique design allows ATC to build one of the lightest motorcycle trailers in the industry. ATC’s perimeter frame motorcycle trailer design differs from our competitors design in that our sub frames strength comes from our tube frame which runs all the way to the outside of our sub frame.  Not like most motorcycle trailers that rely on a frame that includes outriggers to support their side walls.

ATC builds motorcycle trailers in lengths from 12′ up to 20′. We can custom design a motorcycle trailer in lengths up to 53′. ATC’s motorcycle trailers inside heights come with a standard height of 6′.   Additional heights of up to 8′ are available. ATC builds motorcycle trailers in both 7.5′ and 8.5′ widths.  The 7.5′ wide design is set up to fully dressed bikes to easily fit side by side and the narrower design makes it easier to see when towing the trailer.  The 8.5′ wide trailer is a foot wider and allows for the maximum interior storage space.  ATC motorcycle trailers have been on the road since 1999 and continue to offer the best value in the trailer industry

Buy an ATC motorcycle trailer today!  You will be glad you did.

Motorcycle trailers are part of the motorcycle experience

Saturday, February 21st, 2009

ATC and Motiv Trailers have been much more successful penetrating the motorcycle trailer market than the utility trailer market.  Many times we have asked ourselves why this is, because we build a really great line of cargo/utility trailers.  We realized it all comes down to one word “passion”.  Motorcycling is more than a hobby or an extra curricular activity; it is a lifestyle that people are passionate about.  When people are passionate about things, they are willing to spend a little more to get a product that has more flash and will outperform another product.

I’m not saying that landscapers and contractors are not passionate about their business, but when is the last time you heard a landscaper or contractor talk about the really cool utility trailer they were getting ready to buy to carry their tools around in?  A cargo trailer is simply a necessity for carrying tools from point A to point B.  Motorcycle trailers on the other hand are quite different.

Motorcycle trailers are part of the motorcycle experience.  At the rallies and events we travel to we have noticed that good motorcycle trailers will become the hub or the area where people hang out.  For that very reason many of our motorcycle trailers are equipped with surround sound TV systems, bathrooms, lounge facilities, and yes even keggerators with beer taps!  With a high end ATC or Motiv trailer, get ready to call your trailer “mission central” at the next big rally.

ATC Motorcycle Trailers - Completing the Package

Friday, May 9th, 2008

I’ve heard it time and time again, “I’ve got a nice truck and a great bike…what I need now is a trailer that compliments them.” Well, there’s little doubt from anyone that the GTS is THE premier motorcycle trailer in the industry. Time and time again cyclists are “completing their package” and investing in a GTS.

During the 2006 Daytona Bike Week rally I was fortunate enough to help one of our customers “complete the package.” He had a Boss Hoss with a beautiful custom paint job and the big V-8 motor! His tow vehicle, none other than a Porsche Cayenne…so you want to talk about someone eager to complete the package, this was it! When you have these kind of “toys” you’re not interested in a run of the mill trailer, you’re looking for something that sets you apart from the crowd…you just won’t settle for the ordinary!

Well, enter the GTS; and our customer couldn’t have been more excited about his new trailer. A black Porsche Cayenne pulling a black GTS, it really just doesn’t get much better than that…that is until he unloads his Boss Hoss. It’s not hard to imagine what a spectacle it is when he drops the rear ramp door and fires up his Boss Hoss V-8 engine…backing this machine out of the GTS is quite a site.

You don’t have to own a Boss Hoss or a Porsche Cayenne to appreciate the superior quality, fit and finish of a GTS (but it doesn’t hurt)!

Myrtle Beach Bike Week

Monday, July 16th, 2007

Myrtle Beach Bike Week was a success this year and ATC had a little extra surprise at the booth located at Broadway at the Beach…it was one of their GTS all-aluminum, all-tube frames. People were excited to see what normally can’t be seen…the actual construction that is hidden under the floor and behind the interior and exterior walls.
As one bystander stated, “Seeing is believing…and now I can better understand what puts ATC in a class all by itself.” Most manufacturers wouldn’t dare place their bare frame on display, but ATC is proud of their 100% all-aluminum, all-tube construction…in simple terms, there’s just nothing to hide!
At ATC we realize the very core of a trailer begins with the frame and we’re not willing to sacrifice quality at any level. Just because you don’t normally see the frame is no reason to short change your customers…you need to deliver the highest quality product possible and the strength of our trailers begins with a quality frame built to last. Our competitors rely on the strength provided by the addition of interior walls or heavier exterior panels, but at ATC we let our designs and superior materials deliver the unmatched strength!
The frame was such a success in Myrtle Beach don’t be surprised if you don’t end up seeing more frames at future shows…it just shows you everything and we feel that it’s important for our customers to know what they’re getting for their hard-earned dollar!

Daytona Bike Week

Thursday, March 15th, 2007

2007 Daytona Bike Week was a huge success. This might possibly be the best retail show I have ever experienced. There is little doubt that overall attendance was down over past years, but this certainly didn’t slow down the sales of trailers.

I believe the exceptional quality of the trailers is what has driven the companies success. Time and time again people are simply floored when they see their first Motiv Trailer. People have become complacent in accepting subpar quality from the “run of the mill” trailer builders out there. Motiv has and always will remain true to building a trailer that exceeds the expectations of even the most discriminating buyer.

If you weren’t able to make it down to Daytona Bike Week you can also catch us at the Panama City Thunder Beach Spring Rally May 3-6. This is always a biker favorite with the Gulf shores and pristine beaches just a stones throw from the rally.

Motiv Steel and Aluminum Motorcycle Trailers

Wednesday, March 14th, 2007

Motiv by ATC has an attitude that is much different than your standard trailer company. Instead of trying to skimp on materials and degrade quality for the sake of price we have taken the time to design the best built and highest quality trailers avaiable. This is extremely evident when you consider our Motorcycle line. We believe that the motorcycle that you case so much about and have so much invested in should have a trailer that it looks like it belongs in.

Our lineup includes both steel and aluminum trailer. Our GTX trailer mimics the features and functionality that the ATC GTS has. The only major difference between the trailers is the Steel Frame vs. Aluminum Frame. The same level of quality and craftsmanship go into making each of these trailers and they will both certainly be the star of any Bike Show.

Motiv also offers an affordible line of Motorcycle Aluminum Trailers (named MSA). By keeping the options limited we are able to streamline these trailers and offer you extra savings on a great motorcycle. This trailer has many great features and has the extra benefit of being lightweight with coomplete aluminum construction. This trailer is still made from superior materials with the same precision craftsmen working on the trailer, but by streamlining it we are able to pass the savings on to you.

Check out our complete line of Motorcycle trailers under the Trailers tab. You will certainly not be disappointed. Just don’t be surprised if the trailer takes over the star space that you ride used to get at the next bike show.

Luxury Aluminum Motorcycle Trailers

Thursday, March 8th, 2007

ATC has created a new niche in the motorcycle trailer market for “Luxury Aluminum Motorcycle Trailers”. We decided to tap into this market about four years ago for three key reasons. 1)We are really good at building high-end trailers. 2)We heard our customers asking for a “better” motorcycle trailer. 3) Lastly, we never understood why someone would spend $25,000 (and much, much more) on a nice bike and then haul it to a rally in a junky steel trailer.

We recognize that our motorcycle trailers do cost more than some of the “other guys”. We designed our trailers are for the guys and gals out there who are truly passionate about great biking. We know we are in a smaller market than the mass-produced motorcycle trailers, but it sure puts a warm spot in our hearts knowing that we build the best trailer that money can buy.

Take a good look at our motorcycle offerings. They look great in photos, but you really have to see one in person to fully understand the passion that goes into each and everyone of our motorcycle trailers.
