So, I'm putting together a trailer to haul the R3 so that I can get some more interesting rides in with Mrs J3 this year. What I need now is a decent set of ramps. I have a set but found out last night that the beast is a bit too heavy for them (don't ask how I found out )

Anyone point me at a decent set of ramps that will...

a) hold the weight
b) be wide enough that I'm not puckering on the way up and down
c) don't cost a mortgage payment
 
I use a HF tri-fold ramp it's close to 4 ' wide by about 70" long if memory is correct costs around $100 when on sale.
 
Thanks. Looks like they're on sale now

No issues with all the weight being on the middle ramp?
 
If it's just on to a trailer just get them made or weld them yourself. They won't have to be long, my trailer just has 2" angle iron and it's never bent. 1-1/2" square tubing with angle iron rungs will work. Steel is cheap.
 
I've been using mine for about 4yrs. used it for a C109RT before my R3T still going strong.
 
never put my bike on trailer dont (hopefully)plan to either maybe run down to phoenix this weekend 7 hour drive one way for two days

I load her up on my truck had a ramp made up in two parts steel tubing and grate 8 feet long with a 36 inches wide stance total cost $400 solid as a rock BTW I load her up with a small winch,mounted on the front of the box using bike power looks good on video but not recommended in real life so have a welder do yours steel is cheap
 
You do know that this picture is not politically correct. The truck is a ford and everybody Knows that only Harley's are allowed in the bed of Ford pickups.
