Im looking for an enclosed trailer for my heritage and my wifes sportster. I want to use it mainly for storing my bike while Im stationed in New York since I dont have a garage. An ideas on size or brand?
I have a 12x6x6 Haulmark that I have put a Softtail Classic and Wideglide in at the same time. I wish I had got a 14x7 or 14x8 six feet tall. Do a trailer search on here. This is a well discussed topic.
Definitely do a search. Lots of discussion on that. The minimum size trailer I would recommend would be a 7X12. You could get by with a 6X12, but it would be tight.
1 have a 6x12 for my Heritage and with it centered over the single axle, can get around the sides without bumping (barely). I wish I went with a 7x to get around it easier. Hope this helps.
It does, The only issue I have is spending 3k on a trailer I dont plan on using that often, I like to ride, like I said I want it more for storage so I can drive to and from work. I've been looking around has anyone tried these before? http://www.cycleshell.com/
Got to say the 7 x 14. Could go a bit smaller but why risk shoving them in there too tight and marking them up. Plus, ya never know when ya might get the itch for a bagger or something bigger.

+1. I have a 6x12 for a SG and Deluxe. Works fine but tight on the sides. Must be careful loading. If I had to do it again, would get a 7' width. The 12' length is plenty with room left over for stuff.
Have had two...both from Forest River...been satisfied.
It is only money---never pays to decide anything by going cheap.

Barbarian, welcome to northern NY. There is plenty of riding here if you are still stationed here come summer. Leave the base thru the south gate onto Rt 3. Turn north and follow it into the Adks.. With a good map you can get all over the Adks. into places like Old Forge, Lk. Placid, Lk. George and furhter east into Vermont. As far as a trailer size I too would go with at least a 7x14. Leaves room to get around the bikes once they're loaded. Be safe.

Its money I dont have to spend on something I dont really need. Thats why asked about the cycleshells. My issue is more where to keep the bike while in NY, because my apt has no garage. I dont see myself using the trailer enough as trailer to warrent spending 3 grand on. When I first made this thread I hadnt found an option to the trailer...
And thanks Tee I know there are a lot of senic drives up in the north country. A lot of those rides sound great.
