You will probobly be able to fit 2 bikes on it. My trailer is 6' x 10' and i have to pick up the back end of my ranchers over the rail to slide them sideways. only one will fit straight on. To get 2 bikes they both have to be sideways.

My trailer is 6ft 4in by 12ft 6in single axle and it hauls 3 fullsize quads sideways just fine and 2 straight on.
Oh and it cost me about $875.00 brand new from trailer place up in New Port Richey..

If you don't have any space to store the trailer the folding one is good. Other than that you get what you pay for.  But it only is rated for 900 something pounds.  That is not much. Two 4x4 utility atv weight more than that I am sure. Plus you have to put it together and add your own wood to the top.

Thats what I have also and I put three ute's on it. I would suggest a tandem axle as my tires are wearing on the inside from the weight. If I were to get another trailer it would be a 6x16 tandem. I got mine at R&R Enterprises on U.S.19 by Little Rd. They had a 6x16 tandem at Loudo for about $1200 which isn't a bad deal. I will sell you my 6x12 and I'll go get a new one.  ;)

i talked with loudo enteprises today, they do have the 6x16, but because of my neighborhood i live in, i have to keep the trailer in my garage, and i'm thinking that the 16' is way too long. 

i'm gonna go buy the 6'x12' this weekend.  i'm only gonna put two atv's on it...so i'm gonna stick with the single axle. 

thanks for the info..and you telling me that your tires are wearing would definitely keep me from buying yours ;) (unless you gave me a good price)

IF YOU CAN`T PUT IT IN YOUR GARAGE OR BACKYARD. YOU CAN CHECK WITH YOUR LOCAL MINI STORAGE SOMETIMES THEY HAVE AN AREA WHERE YOU CAN PARK RVS BOATS AND TRAILERS

yeah, but based on the thread concerning "theft"...i'd rather have it in my garage.  plus it will make it easier to get up and go from the garage when i wanna run the quads.

I went to Loudo a couple weeks ago and talked to the guy about my tires wearing, he said it's a 3500 lb axle and will handle it no problem but there is some flex to the axle with that much weight and will wear the tires. He said he can put another axle on it for $500 but I think I will go with a new trailer later and just replace the tires for now. If you are interested I will give you a good price on it.
