Does anybody know if a Hayabusa will fit on a 6ft trailer bed? I'm looking into getting a trailer and wondering if that will do.

It wont fit in a 6 ft truck bed without the tailgate down, Like Powers said you might have to angle it..
It'll fit, just. You shouldn't have to angle it but the back tire will be right on the end of the trailer floor.
Use a Canyon Dancer (type) strap system and tie it down good, if your trailer has 4.80 x 8s it'll bounce a lot.

Hauled a Harley Ultra Classic in an S10 like yours once. Had to angle it a little but got it to fit, truck sure rode smooth with the behemoth in the back.With the gate down for sure it will fit!!
I have a 6ft bed and put My bike in all the time!!..make sure You have a wheel chock bolted to a piece of wood at the veary least and some good tie-downs front and rear..
old truck pic but new truck has 6ft bed also!!

I had a 5 x 8 ramp trailer from Lowes and my bike fit on that with a little room to spare once the ramp was u8p and locked. So like these guys said above, it will probably fit but the back tire will be either on the edge or you might have to angle it on the trailer.

remind me to never ride with you!!I get 3 in mine
it will fit a 6' trailer (unless it has a tail gate) the bike is 58.5" ..
I think what your tailgate is not taking into account is the 10 or so inches of tire in front and in back of the contact patch (tires are round?)
OVER-ALL length is the number that keeps the tailgate open. On an open flat bike trailer, you do not have the "back" half of this overhang to deal with but it is going to be awful close as you can see by the 6' truck bed on the rear tire.
