Hyperlite 27HFS Garage question

Anybody successfully transported a Harley Davidson Road King in the 27HFS 9 foot garage. Seems close in length. Looks like front D-rings may not be far enough forward? Any trouble in and out? Thanks

I haul my 2009 Elektra glide ultra classic in my XLR 27. Plenty of room. Will be hauling 2 Electra glides to Sturgis in a couple weeks. Don't expect any problems.

Thanks, that's encouraging! 9 ft seems like it should work, but don't want to find out the hard way after purchasing the trailer. How long have you had yours? Has it held up okay, pretty much problem free?

I've only had mine for a year. It's been a dream so far. I do use a locking wheel chock and four takedowns. It did struggle just a little with my f150, but I just upgraded to a f350 with the 6.7 diesel and you don't even know it's there. Good luck

SPilot, no problem with the length. I have a Road King Classic with a King Tour-Pak on the back and have plenty of room. A couple things to consider, first there is a tank under the area where you will want to mount a wheel chock. I bought this one from Harbor Freight (Pittsburgh® Motorcycle - Item#61670) had to drill towards the back of the chock to miss the tank. Second the ramp is steep and my frame will rub at the crest of the ramp, there are plenty of posts about this on this site. I use the chock frame with an electric winch to get the bike up the ramp. I attached the best picture I have of my bike in the camper.
