Well I'm using this horror story as my motivation to stick my painter with my Uni-go. This thread as well as a couple others had me wondering if I could trust my trailer not to kill me. I bought a Uni-go in December and only pulled it a couple times before getting an offer by a friend of one of my fellow American Legion Riders. He said he would put a custom patriotic themed paint job on it if I would allow him to put his "signature" on it. His signature is a emblem about 5 inches in dia. I agreed and he took the trailer over 8 weeks ago. Every time I called him he said just a couple more coats of clear, or some other excuse. He liked to say he hadn't achieved the right "effect" yet.
Got tired of waiting and rode up to see it unannounced last Sunday. Heard from a friend he hung around the shop on Sundays. Walked in and he looked real stunned to see me. Asked to see the progress on my trailer. He told me my trailer was done and that a "buddy" of his had taken it to a Memorial Day bike rally. Needless to say, I don't think I have been that pissed in a long time. I got his buddy's phone # and called to tell him that if the trailer wasn't in my position by the end of the day I would call it in stolen. He them told me it was impossible to come in from Vegas by then. Second fact painter did not tell me. After further discussion with buddy I found out trailer had been complete for 5 weeks. He has traveled with it to a couple of shows in a trailer, and pulled it around with his bike when at the show locations. Lucky I haven't paid him anything yet, and I am demanding he purchase the trailer since the police say he either buys it or can be arrested for stolen property. I don't know if I should call this luck or bad luck. Now the trick is going to be on how to get the cash. I might need to enlist the help of some of my "buddy's".
