Who hauls 3 or more bikes? What size trailer do you use?

I have 3 bikes. 1-360, 1-300 & 1-250. I'd like to get a trailer that will fit all 3. Anyone use a 7foot wide flatbed trailer lining the bikes up sideways? Do is fit? I know my bikes are slightly longer than 7 foot, but I figure the tires would fit perfect and just the ends would maybe hang a tad over. OR should i go with an 8 or 8.5 wide?

I can get a 6x16 that fits the two big bikes and the 250 in my bed, but I need to get a 4th bike for my daughter which I'll put in the truck bed... Just trying not to spend too too much...


What's your setup?

I use a Haulmark Race Trailer. An enclosed trailer is the only way to go if you are taking long trips, and may be staying overnight at a motel. I can't count how many people I have talked to that have had their ATVs stolen off their trailer. Their must be a lot of theifs in this world ..., but they are less tempted if the cant see what is inside the trailer.

On the 7' wide trailer, if you decide to get a flat bed,... make sure you can pull the ATVs on from the side. It gets old in a hurry to have to pull them on from the end, and then turn them sideways.

North Star Sportstar III trailer. They are light and are much cheaper than an aluminum trailer. I'm considering the Sportstar II trailer right now. I just need to find the extra scratch to put towards it.
