Who tows their bike(s)
getting a new trailer and I was wondering if I should get a 4X8 or a 5X8 .... I am only considering these 2 pretty much. I am towing with a car, so it can't be toooo big. The question is, can a 4X8 trailer hold 2 gixxers???? has anyone put two street bikes side by side safe/secure on a 4 foot wide space??? should I hold out for the 5 foot wide one??

I cant tow one that big. My only options are 4x8 or 5X8, and I am wondering if anyone knows if 2 street bikes can fit side to side on a 4ft wide bed .... safe/secure of course. anyone done it?

I transport two bike all the time in my race van that can't be more than 4 foot wide. The trick is to run the tie downs for the inside bars through the wheel of the other bike. Mind you these bikes are not ones you are worried about bumping together all that much but the ussually don't touch. the inside of my van can't be larger than 4 foot you think? normal 1991 ford e-150. A team style sucka.

I have a 5 x 7 and it works just fine and it is the same price as the 4 x 8. I can also put 2 bikes in there, bar to bar, not one in front and the other in backwards, it is close, but we went to Daytona like that and never marked any of them up. Just my
