Default Homesteader EZ-Rider Trailer

Looking at getting a 7x12 tandem axle to haul (2) bikes. Any body have any experience with this brand?

If your looking for a really good trailer and not all the bells and whistles than I'd get her. I am all the bells and whistles type and went with United Trailers. Which I have owned a few for the past 5-6 years. If your on a budget (not being a jerk here) than I would pickup a Homsteader. And here's mine and ain't cheap on price:

Is the dog standard equipment or did you have to pay for the upgrade package?

I'm thinking they wanted too much to add the pitbull lift

I had a new Red Homestead 2-axle several years ago but I think it was a 7x14. I used it in my contracting business for several years and then in the winter I would clean it out and haul my Ultra classic south for the winter. For a mid priced trailer I thought it held up very good.

I have been very pleased with this one (7x14). Previously I have owned the higher profile model, but after pulling a low profile trailer, it is all I can recommend. I have no complaints with this brand.

i don't have experience with this trailer personally...i have however seen it in person..nice trailer and you will certainly be happy.. When i was in the market for a trailer i looked at so many..to be honest any tandem axle trailer will be great...i chose the bravo star..7 x 14 v nose...fits any combination of the 2 bikes i choose to put in it..

I've got a 7x16 v-nose Covered Wagon trailer. They are made in Georgia. I've been very pleased with it. My father and I restore antique motorcycles and use it to haul the bikes to shows. The trailer pulls good and is heavy built.

I have a 2005 7x14 EZ Rider that I bought used a couple of years ago. I work out of town some so I take the bike and keep it in the trailer. Very nice trailer. I have hauled two bikes in it once to TN mountains (only time I have ever trailered to ride). I bought a Condor wheel chock at Sturgis last year but have not mounted it yet. I have a HF WC in it now. I really don't like the chocks that come with the trailer.
