How many bikes is the trailer for? I've used several and like the open trailers because you can fit more bikes and see them while you're driving.

Hey vp, where's here? I know thatyou are in GA. I'm gonna be down there in a couple weeks (3/14 through 3/23). I got a brother that lives up in Powder Springs. We're gonna be riding all over. Thats very inexpensive compared to prices up here around our parts.

I understand what you mean. With a 5x8, you may be able to squeeze in two bikes.

Just a piece of advise to keep in mind. If you use the tralier for storage at your home. Get house trailer tie downs and bolt that bitch down. I had one of my friends that has a friend (true story) that lost like four bikes and his trailer. He used his 24x8 trailer as a garage to store his toys and some assclown drove up to his house in the middle of the day with his wife at home and took it all. Had a couple of four wheelers and dirt bikes in it, I think. I would find some means of anchoring it and locking it up that would take them a couple of minutes to figure it out.
