Got a new trailer for motorbike hauling and I'm trying to figure out the best way to set it up. It's a 6 x 12 V-nose aluminum enclosed trailer. I want to set it up for (hopefully) 3 bikes. 1 bike will be constant (my 929), but I sell and show bikes so I will be carrying other bikes on a regular basis as well.
Is it feasible to carry three bikes in a 6x12? It seems like they would fit, but I'm unsure.
Floor needs a treatment, so it isnt raw wood. Thinking of rhino lining it. My friend said to diamond plate it. Also considered painting it.
After that I'm need to setup the tie down setup and wheel chocks.
For tie-down mounts, they have standard d-rings that you just drill in the floor. They have big ass D-rings with drop bottoms, where you have to cut a hole in the floor then screw it in. They have tracking that runs the length of the trailer so you can put the rings wherever you want for the length of it.
And chocks, I've seen freestanding chocks, chocks that are drilled into the flooring, chocks that work with the tracking, bike specific chocks, chocks that hold the bike from the rear axle so as to not compress the suspension etc.
What are your likes and dislikes with what you've used for your tie-down mounts and your wheel chocks? What do you think is best for a flooring? Anything else a noob like me might not know about trailering?
Thanks. . . Oh and please post pics of your setups!
