Trailer question
Hey all. I have read previous posts only have a few simple questions, I have a 7x15 trailer (V-nose) although inside measurements are a bit different, only 6.5x14. I have to get 2 Baggers (street glide & road glide), I would assume staggered, but does anyone have measurements for how far the wheel choks are off of the side walls?
Any other help would be appreciated!

Mine is 7x12 with e track all the way outboard on both sides and a 3rd one right up the center. My chocks are centered between the e track and it works fine. Could even move the chocks inboard an inch or so and would be ok. Can't go any farther outboard though.

I have a 7X14. The interior is 6.5 feet wide. The center of the chocks are 21" from the walls. The left chock is 12" farther forward than the right. This is because the bikes have to be staggered in a trailer with a 6.5 ft interior. This left bike has to go in first and come out last.

Wait! Wait! Lemme say it before some one else does!! Ride that dang thing...don't trailer it.
But...in retrospect, my 6x12 flat front enclosed trailer cuts the MPG in my Acura MDX by nearly 8 MPG. I'm kinda thinkin I should have gotten a "v" nose.

Tri geezer, if I could ride it that long I would love to make that ride! Body won't handle it, broke my hip years back at age 29, after a few hours I'm done.. So would rather use my riding time while there...
