If you had done more planning, measuring and bought some more materials, you could have made those things easily removed and you could use the trailer for hauling furniture etc or maybe even use it for a camper. Way more weather proof than any tent. Just weld some tubing under the floor with some wellnuts in those crossmembers so that you can just zip those bike stands right out.
The thumb screw is the only item ya need to remove to extract the unit from the floor. Welding, buying tubular product would only add cost, time and future issues. Condor has engineered this product to perfection!
so, I have no idea if you tried this or not but I had no luck getting three in my 7x16 ft. The bikes are too wide to make it work side by side so you have to stagger. Then you run out of length. If you made it work PLEASE send vid or pics. I NEED to see that happen!!!! Drove me nuts. So nuts that I sold the trailer and bought a very oversized trailer ( so over sized that I will have to get a bigger truck, I do not think my 1500 diesel will do the job). I say that BC since I went bigger on trailer I am now hauling 6 bikes. LOL. :)
I was speaking with a large trailer dealership. I inquired on buying a enclosed 6x12 cargo trailer. I said I wanted to install a Condor bike mount with e-track. He said if I bolt it down to ANY trailer it will void the warranty. Is this typical??
I can't believe they didn't bolt to the frame. I'm thinking an emergency maneuver at highway speeds and those little pieces of Etrack will rip right out of the plywood/OSB. But as a truck driver with decades of experience securing loads, what do I know? PS.... maybe put a wireless camera in the trailer to monitor your load? I've been considering something for my 53' trailer.... to see loading progress AND monitor it while traveling.
Thanks for posting this video. I have been thinking about a 6x12 trailer for my 2018 Heritage. I notice you have the extension on the ramp. Do you think the bike would clear without scraping if you did not have the extension? Thanks!
My last trailer was a 7x14 with no extension and I never had an issue with it. It wouldn’t hurt to throw one on though, super easy minus the price of wood now! Makes it a super smooth transition.
I went with L track because it looks cooler than that stamped steel e track stuff. So the best motorcycle trailer has L track, and you have the second best...lol
Watch this video for everything you don't want to do! Good start but omg 1/2 " washers on a 20k motorcycle. Should be using steel plates underneath. Never compress the suspension for long travel. Strap to the lower forks at the fender. And not sure what that 3rd bike is but not a street glide!
I watch people do this then I go outside, clamp a bar to the frame under the transmission, drive the bike in the trailer and walk out. B&W Biker Bar, so easy....
This is not a video you should reference for ideas on trailer setup for hauling multiple bikes. Weight distribution and the placement of track tie down rails is completely wrong!! Pulling this trailer at highway speeds is a disaster waiting to happen not only for the vehicle towing it but also for the innocent unknowing drivers around them.
Hey this was a cool video to watch guys! Thanks for sharin'! Enjoy Bike Week!
Finally, a video that read my mind. Thank you kindly!
Exactly what I was looking for bro you guys did a badass job. Sick bikes by the way. Ride on.
I use similar wheel shocks but strap bike below front shock so you don't compress suspension which is preferred way to strap down. Safe travels guys.
I can't believe you were able to fit those 3 bikes in there. Awesome job.
I put my Ultra Classic and 2 dirt bikes in my 6x10 trailer with no rubbing.
Thanks it was a squeeze but so is my wife 😉
Those Harleys sound awesome !
You sound awesome to be around
Appreciate your bike trailer video!
4, 12 ft E tracks. Done ✅

Good video, was trying to see if I could get 3 baggers in my new 16 ft v nose trailer you got 3 in a 14 ft I should be good thanks

That road glidenwill still sway left to right on bad bumps..
Any updates..Dos and don'ts..

Clearly they don't trust the particle board plywood flooring. Can't say I blame them. Cheap plywood

Fuck the warranty!
10/15% of full weight on tongue not considered. Why?
2500 who gives a fuck

What state are you guys located in? I need someone to hookup my trailer the same way you guys did yours.
New York buddy

What brand wheel chocks are those
Condor Pit Stop
What size trailer?
It is 7x14
It is 7x14

That’s right Vinny that’s why we made this video for pussies like you!!
40k bike who gives a fuck haven’t had an issue in 5k miles hauling
I would spray some rhino liner on the bottom of that trailer. That type of plywood rots fast from moisture from wet roads.
I watch people do this then I go outside, clamp a bar to the frame under the transmission, drive the bike in the trailer and walk out. B&W Biker Bar, so easy....
Yeah. Why you looking up how to strap down bikes in a trailer then
@@2WheeledFilms click bait, read the title
Why not just ride to bike week?
Some bikes are more show bikes and they don’t wanna chance inclement weather also they wanna take a bunch of gear/luggage.
Some people live more than an hour away. These guys are 800 miles away
800 miles is a one day ride@@vswebster
Cause it snows here in may bitch

Traveled 1000s of miles with this set up. Things tighter than your old lady you pussy
We will park them sideways for you next time 👍🏻
