Any ramp ideas?
I have looked ALL OVER for an aluminum ramp that can hold the weight of a dresser and rider onto a trailer. And yeah, before all you hardcore macho men tell me to "ride it there", that's not an option.
I can't find a tri-fold ramp that will withstand about 1100 lb.s. Anybody got an idea or one for sale just PM me.
Thanks !

www.jpcycles.com advertises some.
I do know that the ones I used for loading a Snapper lawn mower into back of a truck did work. I bought them from Snapper.
But once I got bike off truck and looked at the bend in the damn things, I was lucky. Plus it was kind of unnerving to back the bike down one ramp and only having a place to put 1 foot when backing up.

I bought this one in the 9 ft length and love it.

I bought the 9 footer and can ride my
SG into the back of my truck without scraping at all. Their ad is incorrect though. It's rated to hold 2100lbs. 600 for each side section and another 900 for the center section. I use it for all kinds of stuff. 300.00 well spent.

TRI-FOLD, it has to be to fit on the trailer for transport.
Thanks for the other ideas too.

Another idea is most Harley dealers have stationary ramps that they will let people use. You could load it at your dealer near home and call ahead to a dealer near your destination to see if they will let you use it. In Sturgis some of the campgrounds have them as well.
