Best Transport Option for Me?

[jackflack44]

What is the most cost-effective way to transport 2 bikes with a GMC Yukon? And will you give the price and website please? I want to :ride: on my own schedule!

I think someone makes a two-bike hitch hauler, but I could be dreaming. google "hitch hauler"

easiest might be a 2-rail trailer. Or even just a utility trailer. Look at your local wheeldeals or craigslist.

Ok are there any places to get cheap rail trailers?

Do you think this will hold 2 KX100's comfortably? And I think I'd like to see rail trailers reasonably priced 'cause I'd feel a lot more comfortable seeing the cost differences if I take the risk of a hitch hauler.

I mean new Pred.

we gave about $800 for my 8x5 tilt bed new. You can find them used for 300-400 pretty easily. As said above, check craigslist.

I paid 350 for my 4x6 tilt trailer at Tractor Supply.. Then I cut it in half right in front of the axle, and extended it a foot. Plus I added a 36 inch drop gate on the back.

When I extended it, we took the stock expanded metal deck off, and replaced it with a heavier gauge expanded metal.

I can haul 3 bikes with no problem on it. 2 forward 1 reveresed..

Not likely or at least not three full size bikes. I had a 5x8 utility trailer and we could do three as Indy stated, two forward and one backwards.

I don't have one of these but it looks pretty good for the price and its ready to go.

That's the one that I modified... Without the drop gate on the back you can get a full sized bike on it, with the gate you need to extend it an extra foot.

And yes, you can get 3 on it quite nicely... Just so long as you don't mind them being in there really tight.

Try discountramps they have a 2 bike hitch carrier. The amc-600-2 costs $240 and you don't need to pay for plates"if applicable". I have the amc-400 and it has been great.

2 minis but 2 full size might be tight.

 

[IDK83]

Not sure about that but it shows to full size bikes on it and you can put 600 pounds on it. You have one? Two 100's can't weigh that much. I have enough room on mine but I just put my RMX 250 on it.

I'm looking at getting a new bike and that hitch myself. If it's to tight I wouldn't mind finding out from someone who has one.
