Is this the type of trailer you are looking for.
First attempt at uploading photos, Courious if it works for me.

Not exactly. We've got 3 bikes, but only haul 2 at a time because it's just my wife and I. I sold an enclosed larger than that, but it had a 6'6" interior height and a shallow V nose. That made the mileage horrendous.
So after all the discussion, searching and finding out pricing on some more aerodynamic models it looks like I go back to the same style, but with a lower profile.

Looks like another Kristi for me: IN LINE SNOWMOBILE
Exact same trailer as I use for my business. Got a very good deal on it from a dealer about 6 miles from home. I know how it's built and how it pulls. Very satisfied with my current model. Was going with 7x14 but for not much more money will do a 7x18. Might be able to haul an extra bike or two that way. That could be a way to recoup some fuel money!

Something to be said for the devil you know !

Nice looking trailer - I'm liking the drive in + out option.

Let us know how the mpg ends up, next run south....

I still can't believe one of these trailer manufacturers have not gotten smart enough to clean up the back end. Even a simple "V" design would be better than nothing.

I agree, but that doesn't seem to be an option anyplace at this time. As I mentioned in an earlier post, the supposedly more fuel efficient fiberglass models just price themselves out of my league for what they are and how infrequently it would be used.

I'll have to experiment with the drive in & out thing. The front ramp is steeper than the rear. Probably fine for snowmobiles but may be an issue for a motorcycle. The trailer is on order and probably a couple of months out before it's built. Went with indigo blue to be close to my pickup's color.
