    What are you using to tow this? 400lbs seems like a lot of tongue weight. I wouldn't put my bike on something like that, but that's just me. I would get an actually trailer (I have a 3-place trailer, can handle 3 dirt bikes, or two full size bikes). A single place MC trailer can be found on craigslist for not much more than what that costs.

    Personally, no way. I wouldn't do it.

    If I'm not mistaken Cycle Gear had these $159 ramps on sale for $80 when I was in the store last week. Of course that's if you have a truck and a Cycle Gear close by...

    They are rated for 500lbs and have seen a few of them on Rvs so think there safe or wouldn't be sold.I never heard of anyone losing a bike.

    I thought this was pretty cool, not too bad of a price.

    Dont buy the harbor frieght one its junk. A friend had it and a dirtbike bent it. I have a versahaul brand made for street bikes best thing I ever bought. I love it. I live in NYC where the roads are the worst and have not had a problem. I have used it dozens of times with my xb12ss.

    not sure that would be my first choice at all, says 400lb max, after a bump there may be 500lb atleast of downward pressure on that metal, but just my 2 cents.
