RV and Motorcyle using MX Ultimate MX Hauler Ramp Single Motorcycle Carrier. Low cost method of attending conferences. Find an RV park outside the city and ride the motorcycle to the conference. Cost of RV part was $50 per night and the conference Hotel was over $250 per night.
I have a BMW F650 GS that weighs 475 pounds. It is a little too heavy for this lift. At the lowest level the hydraulic jack has the least mechanical advantage and will not lift the bike. Once at the destination the bike is too heavy to roll it back off the rack. This is due in part to the flex of the rack and the lifting the bike wheel over the ribs in the rack. If I get another person to help, it goes fine. I can drive it on the rack.
The rack with a 200 pound Moped worked great.

What wheel chock did you add? Did it install into factory pre-drilled holes?

Simple wheel chock from Amazon. I would rather not have it on there. It does help when riding it on and holding it. I can power it off that side. If I could I could do it all by myself.

Do you still use this lift? I'm interested in a few of these type haulers and welcome your opinion.

Yes. I will carry 2 of my 3 cycles. The 400 lbs limit is the key.

Just replace the jack with one that lifts more weight and you wont have that problem anymore. From the land down under😶‍🌫

I looked at doing this and yes it is possible. The dimension and specs of the jacks I could find either would not lower enough or would not fit in the space.
