Weight Calculations
My son has a Dutchman (24QB)24' 4500 lb TT. He wants to haul a 300lb motorcycle on the back of the trailer. How much will that motorcycle decrease tongue weight?

A couple of the guesses are not too far off, but they totally disregard the dynamics of the situation. What happens when things move, bounce and flex as the trailer is towed down the rough highway? Much more complex and beyond the scope of an Internet opinion game.
