Has anybody had any experience with a motorcycle car dolly? there is a company in NC that makes them. they use the front wheels for the car position to balance the wieght of the motorcycle which sits crosswise. it does have adjustment points but looking for real world experience. thanks

Last summer we saw a simular rig up here, it had a full sized cruiser up front crosswise in front of the car, the guy said it was a home built rig but claimed it pulled and handled great it appeared to me to be a lengthened car dolly with a bike ramp added. He said the trick was to balance it so the tongue weight wasn't to heavy. I would be very interested in hearing more also, I pull 4 down but also have a goldwing so it would be nice to have options like that.

I am enclosing the front part of my extra long one car trailer with access from the side to be able to take the Harley and a small car

Lsat spring in Texas, I met and talked to Noah, who has a factory built unit and likes it. They have a blog and live fulltime in their rig. Loading an unloading looked easy, if you like I wiil try to post a link to their blog, then you may ask him.

http://mybaddiet.blogspot.com/ Let me know if this works. thanks
Most parks I've been in have little room for car trailers, they may have storage area parking. If your wife is 3 months or longer stays, then long trailer????
Bike on truck looks good--- bike in van (out of wheather/sight) depends what part of country your in....
