Abstract
A two-wheel tractor is provided with an improved type of steerable two-wheel trailer having a steering mechanism which enables an operator of the tractor seated in the trailer to bring about turning movement of the tractor-trailer assembly in a natural and efficient manner by applying a lateral steering force to the handlebars of the tractor. This arrangement minimizes the steering force required upon the tractor handlebars and the amount of lateral movement thereof relative to the trailer while also providing enhanced lateral stability to the tractor and trailer assembly.
