My 44' gooseneck (1994 International w/ 3 axles) (which, by the way, is red....) has an RV section in the front. As it has a generator housing that protrudes into the garage area is has 18.5 feet of garage (21 feet if you took cabinet/generator out) to electric floor winch. The interior is 6' high, 6.5 feet wide. The rear door is 77" tall by 95" wide - it is 6'8 between the wheel wells. The RV section has a bed on the platform over the G/N, roof A/C, large side door w/window, sink, microwave, large shower, water htr (no toilet). I put my 54' Merc street rod in it no problem - alum diamond plate floor, interior all finished, 6,500 watt ONAN. I don't use it much and might consider selling it. One could either modify or remove the RV section to gain more space.

If you get an unfinished trailer, you can get any length you want. Insulation, interior walls and lighting, RV section, generator, winch - they all can be added.

Try here.

I have been looking at goosenecks and have not found anyone that will compete with these guys price. A 40 will give you 32 ft of floor or you could drop to a 36 and get 28. You can get the 40 for 10k or so.

If your planing to only trade your Harley for a trailer you will be limited on what you will get....you would be better off selling your Harley then use the cash to buy a trailer....remember money talks and many times you can bargain to get the price down with cash

I have bought many trailers and currently own 6 trailers the one true fact about trailers is " its too small or its too big "
