How do you load/secure mororcycles? Photos?
Hi All. Been looking to move up to a toy hauler. How does everyone secure motorcycles? All I'm seeing is D-rings in the garage floors. I'm mechanically inclined & can do mods.

To answer your question on loading the bike. I ride mine up the tail ramp in first gear keeping the RPMs up. I ride it right into my chock then secure it down.
To unload, back it off the trailer keeping it in first gear and using the clutch to brake. You don't want to use the front brakes. When I am 1/2 way down I just let it roll off backwards.
I did have a fall while loading my 700+ Honda once since I did not have enough forward speed. I now wear my helmet when loading and unloading our two motorcycles.
Our trailer uses the garage area as the bedroom with a happi-jac queen bed that lowers. Never a gas or oil smell. If you have that issue then you need to work on your bike!
