The trailer was easy to assemble, the parts were all present, well packaged and easily identifiable. The trailer is excellent quality and perfectly fits my 127 Bonafide Kayak and my needs.

Love that! Once the trailer is up and running, we would love to see a picture of it in use.



by:

Great, well made trailer. It was not too hard to assemble, although an extra pair of hands helped. It probably took 3 hours. Make sure you have a torque wrench and the proper lug wrench. I ordered the spare tire and rack as an afterthought, so go ahead an get one.



by:

Great product. Very easy to build. The instructions were very easy to follow and fit and finish of parts are great.

Love, Love my Yakima EasyRider trailer. eTrailer once again pulled through again with excellent customer service and went out of their way to make things right on a timely manner, thank you eTrailer !!!

This must be the best off the shelf kayak trailer available. I have pulled this trailer loaded all over the upstate NY area, then from NY to SC. I just got back from a fishing trip to Mississippi with my 2 kayaks. It pulls like a dream at all speeds. I have a Hobie PA 12 rigged for fishing, a Yakima rod box on the top and I carry my wife’s Hobie Passport on the bottom. I pull the trailer with my Tacoma and it doesn’t noticeably affect my gas mileage on long trips. On the bottom I use some foam kayak pads to protect the second kayak. My only wish is there was a better way to secure the kayaks to the trailer on the bottom. Other that that and the price this is a perfect kayak trailer in my opinion for someone who needs to purchase an off the shelf trailer.

Bought the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer, associated Spare Tire kit, and the Yakima Cinch Straps last year and we are extremely pleased. EasyRider assembled easily in an afternoon. EasyRider also doubles as an outdoor storage rack for our kayaks that we can move easily by hand across grass. We carry our 4 Pungo kayaks, two 12' on the bottom level and two 10.5' on the top... lots of positive comments on this easy setup when we pull into a launch site (we always recommend checking it out on etrailer.com). We use two sets of Yakima Cinch Straps (4 straps in total) to hold everything down and they are just long enough for the slightly wider 10.5' kayaks. Took our whole setup from the top western corner of Pennsylvania, down through the winding mountainous roads of West Virginia / Virginia, and out onto the Outer Banks.... EasyRider Trailer and Yakima Cinch Straps performed absolutely perfectly on all road conditions. EasyRider was even easy enough to unhitch and maneuver by hand in sand at access points on Sound side of OBX. Yes it is a more expensive trailer, but we feel it makes up for that in easy of use and less frustration. Plus the EasyRider offers options... when the kids move out and take their kayaks, mom and dad can buy the compatible Yakima bike racks to mount on the top level and we can easily transport two kayaks and two bikes.
Security: We use a 1/2" coated steel cable that is 15' long, which we lace through the kayak carry handles and wrap around the trailer cross piece, and use a padlock through the cable loops. We also use a padlock on the EasyRider's ball hitch lever to lock onto our vehicle... this thing is just that easy to move!

I had a few issues getting all the parts with the original delivery but everything missing was sent with no issues. The Yakima Easy Rider Trailer is an excellent product! Everything went together easily. Recently also ordered the spare tire that is not part of the trailer package.

Love the trailer



by:

My purchase of the Easyrider Double Decker was an upgrade from my Yakima Rack and Roll (R&R) trailer which we enjoyed for 7 years before we needed more capacity. We hauled the R&R back and forth from Michigan to Florida and several trips in the north for 7 years. It was easily sold to some fellow kayakers. I was happy to find the Easyrider when I needed a little more capacity. I added a cargo rack to the bottom level to carry our rolled-up inflatable SUPs, paddles, life jackets and rowing gear for the long trips and can use that rack for carrying the inflated SUPs for short trips. The upper deck carries two kayaks and two bikes. The Easy rider is a little longer that the R&R but still pulls with ease and the folding tongue allows us to store it in our carport. After our first roundtrip year with the Easyrider, we are very happy with our purchase.



by:

Good looking trailer, multifunctional trailer... excellent .



by:

We love our trailer. We got it to get out car-top tent at a more accessible height and to carry our camp boxes to get them out of the car. It makes exploring much easier since we can park the trailer and go. We do not use it for a kayak, so we do not need the long tong. It would be so great if you made a shorter extension for people like us, so that there is not so much space between the trailer and the car.

See what our Experts say about this Yakima Kayak Trailer

  • Will the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer Work With a Tepui Tent Kukenam Sky Tent
    Yes, a 2009 Subaru Forester can tow the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer part # Y08129 without issue as it is very lightweight, only 175 lbs which then leaves you with plenty of capacity for your tent and other cargo. In regards to loading, both the upper and lower deck can be used so there would be no issue using a cargo basket/tray on the lower deck and a roof top tent on the upper deck. In fact, when Yakima presented the trailer to us that is that exact same configuration they...

  • What Kayak Carrier will Work with Rhino-Rack HD Crossbars on a 2013 Ford Transit Connect?
    A great option to transporting kayaks on your 2013 Ford Transit Connect with the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack w/ 2 Heavy-Duty Crossbars for Ford Transit Connect - Pad Mount - 50" Long item # RLZ01-DC is the Rhino-Rack 2 Kayak Carrier w/ Tie-Downs - J-Style - Folding - Side Loading item # S512-S512X. The folding design of the Rhino-Rack 2 will allow you to carry up to 2 kayaks on their sides safely and securely.

  • Can Multiple Extensions be Added to Yakima MegaWarrior for Yakima EasyRider Trailer
    You can add more extensions to the 74" x 48" Yakima MegaWarrior Extra Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket # Y07080-82 but for each additional extension you're going to need another crossbar. Since another extension # Y07082 will put the MegaWarrior # Y07080-82 at 96" x 48" and the outside lower bars of the EasyRider # Y08129 are about 81" apart so I wouldn't add any more than that.

  • Use of Yakima JetStream Crossbars for a Rooftop Tent on My 2011 Honda Pilot
    It truly depends on the roof style you have. The only Yakima JetStream system that works is if you have raised factory rails on your 2011 Honda Pilot. If you have raised rails, you can use the following setup with a tent: - Yakima JetStream Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 60" Long # Y00426 - TimberLine Towers # Y33TR - Yakima Same-Key Lock Cores # Y07204 Since these crossbars attach directly to your raised rails, they are perfect for mounting a roof top tent. With this crossbar setup,...

  • Will Yakima LockNLoad Fit Lower Crossbars of EasyRider Double Decker Trailer
    Yes, there are a few Yakima LockNLoad trays that will fit on the lower portion of the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer # Y08129. According to Yakima their largest tray is the "E" which measures 84"x49" which can be found here: - Yakima LockNLoad Platform Rack for Crossbars # Y05047-39 Since the MegaWarrior comes with the raised sides I don't recommend going that route because it will make loading and unloading gear a little more of a hassle (like what you mentioned).

  • How to Mount a Tent with a 2017 Kia Sorento with a Bare Roof
    Since the kit that involves parts # Y00421, # Y28TR, and # Y06159 in your question, I assume you have a 2017 Kia Sorento with a bare roof and no factory rails. If this is the case, while we do have a solution you can use, you unfortunately cannot mount a roof top tent to your roof. This is because all of the roof racks we carry use door jamb clamps to mount the crossbars to your vehicle. Manufacturers strongly advise against using roof racks that use this attachment style because the clips...

  • How Easy Is It To Load Kayak On Rubber Pads Of Lockrack LR24VR Compared To Normal Kayak Carrier?
    Sliding a kayak across the rubber pads on the Lockrack # LR24VR really won't be much different than normal crossbars/kayak carriers, though I recommend picking up some silicone spray from a local home improvement store and keeping the rubber coated in that every couple of months. This will make loading the kayak even easier than with most kayak carriers, making it a lot easier on your back. This will work perfectly on the lower level of your Yakima EasyRider # Y08129.

  • Compatibility of Yakima EasyRider Trailer w/ Cargo Basket, Bike Rack, and Kayak Carrier
    I would be happy to help you. The Yakima MegaWarrior Extra Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket item # Y07080-82 is the largest cargo basket that Yakima offers and will fit perfectly on the lower level of the Yakima EasyRider item # Y08129. The Yakima BigCatch Kayak Carrier item # Y04091 and your 34" wide Bonafide SS127 kayak can be mounted on the upper bars of the Yakima EasyRider item # Y08129. You will still have room for the Yakima HighRoad Roof Bike Rack item # Y02114 due to the 78" long...

  • How to Use Yakima SkyRise Rooftop Tent With 2019 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
    We do have an option for you to still be able to use your tent, although the Yakima SkyRise Tent # Y07437 is only compatible with roof racks that fit on raised side rails, fixed mounting points, or flush side rails. A Jeep Wrangler such as a 2019 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, does not have any type of rails or mounting points, so there isn't a roof rack that can support a SkyRise tent on this particular vehicle. You are not out of luck though, because you can still use the tent, but it will...

  • What Roof Rack System Is Needed For A 2022 Ford Escape With A Naked Roof
    Unfortunately since your 2022 Ford Escape doesn't have factory mounts the only roof racks that would be compatible would be the clamp-on style that mounts on the door frame. Because it's not actually mounting to the supports on your roof you wouldn't be able to use a rooftop tent. The only solution would be to use a trailer with crossbars, like the # Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer # Y08129. This trailer was designed specifically for this purpose, but I've seen a lot of people...

  • Can a Yakima LockNLoad Platform Attach to the Bottom of the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer?
    Yes, you can attach a LockNLoad platform to the bottom of the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer item # Y08129 but not that one because it's too wide. Instead you'll need the 84" Long x 49" Wide Yakima LockNLoad Platform Rack for Crossbars item # Y05047-39 or the shorter 55" Long x 49" Wide item # Y05044-39. The lower bars on the EasyRider item # Y08129 are larger than most other crossbars and have a 2" diameter but the included mounting kits will accommodate round bars up to 2". The...

    I'll start off by saying that the only trailer with a folding tongue is the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer - 14-1/2' Long - 78" HD Crossbars - 500 lbs # Y08129, which is 14 feet long and has a capacity of 500-lbs. The issue you are likely going to have going with this trailer is that it will not allow you to mount the Plastic Storage Box # MPG536, which is only designed to be mounted on trailers with A-frames; it can also be mounted on either the front or behind the front axle of...

  • What Tire Pressure Should I Use on the Tires That Come With the Yakima Easy Rider Trailer
    Yes. The tires on the Yakima Easy Rider Double Decker Trailer # Y08129 do need to be inflated to 80psi when cold. When it comes to trailer tires, they're designed to be load bearing, so inflating them to the prescribed psi enables them to hold the maximum load. This also reduces the chances for heat related malfunctioning that can occur when they're under-inflated. These tires are designed to withstand that amount of pressure, so there's nothing to worry about.

  • Best Cargo Basket and Kayak Carrier Setup for Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer
    The MegaWarrior Extra Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket # Y07080-82 is an excellent cargo basket option for the bottom section of the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer # Y08129. Since the EasyRider has 78" HD Crossbars on top you'll have no issues fitting a JayLow Kayak Carrier # Y04073 to either side and fitting the SkinnyWarrior # Y07014-16 in between them. The JayLow carrier can handle 1 kayak up to 80 lbs so since your Perception Tribe 9.5 boats only weigh in at 48.5 lbs you've got...

I'm sure you could devise a way to attach some bunk boards but I really don't have any options for this so instead i'd recommend the Yakima BigCatch Kayak Carrier part # Y04091 which is designed for these larger fishing kayaks.

    The lower crossbars on the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer # Y08129 are larger than most other crossbars and have a 2" diameter. While most people just mount pads on them and secure the kayaks with tie-downs that way I recommend using the Yakima BigCatch Kayak Carrier w/ Tie-Downs # Y04091 because we know these will fit the larger crossbars and they are a saddle style type carrier so they have a lower profile for better clearance on the bottom of the trailer.

The 165 lb weight rating is the dynamic rating so the static rating would be higher, but we need to look at a different solution since a clip-style roof rack shouldn't be used for this application.
