Placement of motorcycle for towing
I'm getting my first toy hauler soon. Where is the best place to strap a bike weighing between 800 and 1200 pounds ? Behind the axle, closer to the ramp, or over the axles? Thanks

There usually isn’t going to be a whole lot of options. If you are happy with your tongue/pin weight directly over the axle is best. If you’re needing to add pin weight move the bike as far forward as possible …. move it back to reduce pin weight. My bike and carrier weighs about 1000 lbs and is about 17 feet behind the centre of the tandem axles. That is about the worst place to carry that much weight but it works. My rv handles noticeably better without the bike.
