Benny,
IMHO you should face both bikes forward. Spend $30 and get the JC Whitney wheel stops. When you tie down the bikes you don't hook the handlebars directly. You loop the tie downs through the triple trees and connect both hooks to the trailer loop. I like placing tie-downs on the rear pulling backwards against the front tie-downs. I hook them to the holes in the frame under the bike. It will require that the rear trailer loops are very low on the trailer floor.
