Absolutely love our Rocket as we call it. It’s smooth, tows great behind our fifth wheel, doesn’t catch wind or... fishtail, we can hand move it easily. We have nothing but great things to say about it. Traveled through TN and they worked on some small issues and did a 👏jobread more

It's been 18 months since I took delivery of my 2nd IH single bike hauler. The 1st. one someone else wanted it more... than I did. I used it to haul my VN 2000 Classic LT. It had a dual purpose, when I'd go to fly'ns I'd haul my Green Eagle Powered Paraglider. It was reassuring when I checked into a motel for the night that one or the other were safe and also out of the elements. I'm looking to buy another IH this weekend that way each toy has its own home. Thanks to Jaime, Ed and Julie for such an awesome product!!!!!!read more

Once again, Julie and Ed have demonstrated customer service exceeding all expectations. We were scheduled for tomorrow... morning, to address a minor situation. We were running a day ahead of our planned vacation. As we traveled past Chattanooga, coming from Florida, we called to see if there was any way we could be seen earlier. They took care of us immediately upon arriving, and we were back on the road in prompt fashion. Thanks!! Gary & Dee Berglinread more

We highly love our Ironhorse Motorcycle Trailer... for the ease of loading/unloading our trike, ease of towing behind... our vehicles or motorhome without realizing its back there, and it’s light enough that when empty we can maneuver it around easily. We get compliments and questions about it wherever we go. We would never consider owning any other trailer after getting our Ironhorse!!!read more

We bought our Ironhorse Widebody at the factory in July 2015 to haul our 2 BMW GS bikes across this amazing country... behind our Motorcoach. Almost 5 years, and more than 45,000 miles later, we discovered an issue. Suffice it to say that Julie and Ed went above and beyond to stand behind their product and made it like brand new! Ironhorse is the perfect example of customer service and pride in manufacturing, and we will never own another brand of motorcycle trailer!read more

We love our Ironhorse Trailer! Easy to use, easy to pull, quality made. And the Ironhorse staff was wonderful to work... with...especially Jamie He was very responsive, got us the info we needed and answered all of our questions. Everyone there went out of their way to make purchasing process easy and Jamie even gave us a tour of their factory.

We haven’t had the opportunity to pull the bikes anywhere yet, but we just took delivery of our Wide Body yesterday.... Beautiful trailer! What I would like to say for now is that the purchasing experience has been the best I have ever had. From the first email, to the first follow up phone call, to the delivery, communication and quality have been excellent!! If you’re looking for a motorcycle trailer, please call these people and let them know what you’re looking for. You won’t be disappointed.read more

"Wow! What a wonderful and very pleasant experience. I wanted a trailer that matched the color of my GMC. The... Gelcoat on the Ironhorse widebody matched my pearlized white color perfectly. I also wanted some extra personalized touches and My goal was to get the absolute perfect trailer for our Harley baggers.. Not only is the Ironhorse the best trailer, dealing with Heard's, was a wonderful experience. .. Ok, folks, I must admit this is my FOURTH trailer so I am hooked on quality and a perfect bike trailer. Believe me, I have studied and studied and the Ironhorse is totally worth the investment. I had a two bike, then went with a one bike flip top, the a black widebody, now a white pearl wide body... I would not risk my Harley in any trailer other than an Ironhorse.read more

We bought our first Ironhorse trailer about 10 years ago and loved it. Five years later we traded it in for a wide body... to accommodate my husband's Goldwing and my Heritage Softtail. Love, love, LOVE that wide body and the folks at Ironhorse Trailers!!! They know the true meaning of customer service and practice just that!read more

We just recently purchased our new Ironhorse WideBody ... it not only turned out great, it is an amazing trailer to... pull with two full-dress Harley baggers! The aerodynamics of this trailer is second to none. I have pulled box trailers in the past with only one big bike and it was heavier and you knew you were pulling a load into the wind ... not with this one! The customer service provided is outstanding ... they are very responsive if you have questions. We are so glad we chose Ironhorse Trailers to build us the perfect trailer to transport our motorcycles! ... You get what you pay for!read more

I have a widebody trailer and have used it multiple times over the last three years. I have found that it is amazing... easy to pull. Recently traveled with a friend who has a aluminum box trailer and the difference in gas mileage was significant. I have also found that the customer service to be outstanding. I would recommend this trailer to anyone wanting a high quality product.read more
