i have the one listed below (5 x 8 will haul an Ultra, but not nothing else)......bigger is better if you have the vehicle to pull it.

Several years back I bought one from Jerome Baxley down in Dothan, Alabama. We have hauled the Ultra all over the Country on it, as well as all my "friends" wanting to borrow it! While he makes one and two bike trailers, I bought the single unit trailer. The chock holds the bike secure and on and off is very easy. The craftsmanship is top notch!

I pull it with a Tacoma and, even with the Ultra on board, don't notice it affecting handling or gas mileage very much. Semper Fi Jerome!

When I bought mine several years ago it was the price of steel. If you are "ordering" it they won't give you a price until you place your order. They then check the market price of steel and tell you what you will pay. If its from stock they already know what they paid for the steel.

I know the prices have gone crazy. I bought a 6x10 enclosed v nosed single axle trailer about 5 years ago and paid around $2K. They tell me the same trailer is now way over $3K.
