Thanks for the info fellas...never thought a 6X12 would work but there it is.

PJ, it's not enclosed but here is one for consideration I discovered just last week.



They're in SW Michigan so within a day's drive for you.  Company is at this link: http://www.rnrtrailers.com .  In an email response they told me this trailer easily accommodated two baggers and they sold it for about $2300.

Check out Aluma, I have an MC10 but they have the Aluma  7' x 14' that I want, when I
get tired of riding to destination. I have one picked out for $7700. They also have an open
MC20 open that works great. Check out Thomas Bus which is the largest Aluma dealer.
They are located in Iowa. Best deal 's in the country.

you can use 6`, but it`s a pain to tie them down. 7-8 is way better. i have an 8x20, can haul 4 bikes and u can get around all 4.
easier to check tie downs at stops.

Thanks for the input...I ended up buying a Haulmark "Low Hauler" V-Nose - 14X7.  Pretty nice trailer that comes from the factory fully finished inside with diamond plate, vinyl walls, staggered wheel chocks, etc.  Fits in my garage too!  PJ

Good job, mine has been great, no v nose though..hides behind a fence nicely.

Watch you head is all...

The only weak link I had was the tires were cheezy, jack the nose all the way down, deploy the rear stands and then juck the nose up to get the weight off the tires.  If you dont you will be buying new fenders, dont ask me how I know this..

That's some rough looking guys.
Must be from the west coast!

A Peterbilt and a 24' Trailer that hauls 5 Harley's and a Honda......

I think I see a ST1100 in there.  I had one of those and loved it!

My trailer is 6.5 wide and 12' long plus a V nose.

I would consider this the minimum. I can fit two dressers in, staggered, but it is tight. I would consider 7' inside as the minimum.

If I was to buy another I would go 8x12 or 8x14. The overall width is the same  for a 6.5 or 8' wide trailer, they use the same axles.

I also use Bike Pro chocks to be able to ride in and step off without leaning the bikes over.

Ditto Duane, having the extra width inside be nice...

I agree with the bigger sizes mentioned above,  plus these tie-down rails are the ticket and offer multiple and adjustable tie-down points.

I don't care for the E-Track. I used the aluminum track, beveled (ATB)

Looks pretty much the same to me.  Whichever brand/style offers ready adjustments,  which were not available in the trailer I had.  I just had the tie down rings that were pre-installed.
