4500 lbs loaded or unloaded? Those bikes, and all your camping gear will easily be 500+ lbs. Need to fill water tank too? That adds 8 lbs per gallon so a small 30 gallon tank adds another 240 lbs.
As others have said you want something that can sleep 8-10, under $5,000 and I'm assuming under 4,500 lbs loaded. That low of weight puts you into a rather small trailer.
We camped in a 2004 Starcraft 21SSO. It was about 5,000 lbs loaded and was small. Excellent trailer. It could sleep 4 adults on fold out beds, 2 teens on sofa bed and 2 infants on dinette. To fit all gear we filled the floor with coolers, duffel bags etc. Setting up meant first unloading everything off the floor outside. It did work well for us for 10 years but was cramped.
4500 dry (so nothing in it, no water, sewer, etc.) we expect to be cramped and tight no matter what. :)
