Size UHaul Trailer for Touring Bike?
Any idea the best size for a touring bike? I need a trailer to pickup a road glide. Was thinking 5' x 9' Utility Trailer with Ramp..
Thanks

U-haul has a trailer specifically designed to haul a bike. It has a ramp, chock and properly spaced tie-down points. That's the one I'd get (and have gotten).

^^^THIS. My neighbor and I each rented one earlier this year for our bucket list trip… we covered almost 4,700 miles (I rode my bike about 2,000 of it), and they worked great. My bike is a ‘19 CVO Limited, and his is a ‘15 CVO RG.
Trailers we’re just under $15/day, and they worked great.

I have to pick up a 2004 Electra Glide Police bike in DC next month, I am in east TN. Its just shy of 1000 miles round trip. I see this photo, but the Uhaul website says the trailer is 7'8" long (92 inches), and isn't the EG closer to 98 inches?

According to the Owner's Manual, the 2020 FLTRK has a length of 102.2".
By comparison, the 2004 FLHTP you have to pick up has an overall length of 93.7" in stock form.
