Saw this Harley on the back of a 5er yesterday
Does this belong to a member? Looks good. Looks HEAVY.

A swivel wheel will be similar but you have to find the center of gravity of the swivel wheel trailer and run a similar calculation between the hitch pivot point and the swivel trailer wheels to find out how much is supported by the wheels vs the hitch.
Still no way to violate the laws of physics. 800lbs at 10' behind the axles and pin 20' in front of the axles (adjust as needed for your particular trailer) will result in approximately half the weight of the bike coming off the pin weight.
If the guy who is claiming it's only 40lbs really didn't change anything else, he needs to get his money back...but the scales are usually pretty accurate so I'm still betting he changed something and didn't realize it.
