I want an enclosed trailer for hauling my dirt bikes. Has anyone seen a teardrop-shaped enclosed trailer?

Well Mr. Private, I thought all teardrop trailers were enclosed. :thinking: And yes there have been some teardrop trailers made to also carry motorcycles.

Haven't you asked this question before but used different wording. And what about that hauler that was on ebay a while back?

I want to build a 7 x 12 teardrop/motorcycle hauler. I want it tall enough to walk in (about 6 feet).

I must have missed the one on eBay.

Erik, check any of the plans available here and adapt them for your proposed use. That's what most of us do. If you want a complete set of plans to build it from go to any of the people listed in rich's list and buy them.
Cheers
Paul
PS Little Guy do a TD with the ability to carry a bike.

Erik:

Would you build it yourself or would you like a fiberglass pre-built type
trailer, that you could help design the inside? That is design where your
motorcycle would go and the creature comforts that could be had besides?

Did you forget that you posted this statement?

Maybe you changed your mind. That happens a lot with us when your trying to build a teardrop.

This is the tear that I was talking about. Remember now?

Gage- Is that trailer in the hall or is there more pic's in an album someplace? What is the interior height? ETC...

Gage, you have a memory like an elephant!!!! It doesn't look that bad; it needs graphics. That appears to be about the length I want. Wonder what it cost to build.

Erik, you've seen this photo, right?

You said "bikes," right? So maybe at 7' wide, you CAN fit two in there.

I guess the thing is, following that larger size trailer that Gage posted, the galley has to run front to back, on the sides like that.
