Default Trailer size?

IF you were going to tow a Triglide in an enclosed trailer what size trailer would you need? Please, none of usual flames. Thanks.

I would say at least a 6X10 as the minimum.

We use a 7x12, I wouldn't want to use anything narrower.

7x12 for single TG. With a 6x10 you might not have enough room to clear the rear door/ramp.

Just hauled a GW trike, 59" wide in a 7X12 enclosed, I wouldn't want to try it with anything smaller...or I should say narrower, maybe a 7X10 would be ok, but price would be about the same. Lot depends on the vehicle you're going to tow it with....

7X12 would be ideal, twin axel with brakes.
