Truck Camper with Swivelwheel type trailer?
Anyone have any experience with a Swivelwheel trailer (or similar fixed hitch model) attached to their Truck Camper that allows you to back up without jackknifing? I want to carry a under 600lb. moto...

Skip- I'd considered that, but loading a nearly 600 lb. FJR with a ramp and no way to steady it except letting it fall against the hood of my truck didn't appeal to me ;). Your method would work well for my DRZ, but the FJR or our Rhino 450, not so much! Thanks anyway.
I see you are in Nor Cal. So am I; Placerville area. If you want, I can let you try it out and see how hard it is to load your bike. I can do mine on my own using my 2003 BMW F650GS Dakar that weighs about 550# loaded with the panniers and trunk. The tie down straps are set to length and I put a large piece of foam against the hood. It's very economical. The ramp set-up sells for about $175.
