I had a Forrest River Work & Play Toy Hauler... I never had the issue with my softail going in/out or up/down the ramp....



Usually the ramp angle is too steep due to a short, flat ramp or the floor height of the RV is too high....

You can raise the RV hitch via the hitch jack (although I would leave it attached to the tow vehicle for stability) to decrease that ramp angle, or try these from Race Ramps... They are not cheap by any standard, but I bought a set of their regular ramps for my Corvette. Their products are very light weight for their strength. I used them to do oil changes on my Vette for 6 years... I still have them and use them for my wife's car...

I have NOT used these, but have heard they can help....
