I have a 6x12 closed trailer. My son is the trailer guru (with all of his motocross stuff) and he says they would fit as long as you back one in and put the other one in forward (the bikes facing opposite directions). I personally think it would be too close of a fit for my liking (too easy to bang into each other). It will be a tight fit no matter what.

We had two dresser's on an 8'x20' open with siderails trailer and they wouldn't fit side by side. Had to stagger them. No way they would fit with the engine guards and highway pegs on them. If the trailer has no siderails at all, maybe, but on a 6' trailer, I don't think so.

I have a 6x12 enclosed trailer that I use to haul my rk and my dyna. I'll tell ya it is a tight fit. you have to stagger the bikes and pull back the mirrors on the dresser. I use 3 different strap locations so the bikes never move.The bad thing is my trailer is a single axle and with the two bikes it is at its weight limit. Plus, what ever your tow vehicle is, make sure you have elect. brakes. and anti-sway bars. There is a lot of weight back there. That said. I have trailered lots of miles with no problems. I believe I could put 2 dressers in as long as I staggered them. The bags would be very close(1") to the sides of the trailer. It would be better to have a 7x12 duel axle......

Friend of mine brought my Electra Glide and his Road King down to Fl. in 6x12. Mine went in first minus hardbags and guards I had installed. Also removed my quick disconnect tour pak. Place kickstand on wood block screwed into floor. Four tiedowns on each bike. His has a door on the front righthand side that gives a little more room. Bikes did not move any in 1300 miles. Well worth the minutes to remove hardbags and guards. Hope this helps.
