ABSTRACT:
This disclosure concerns a trailer for safely and easily transporting full-size motorcycles. The trailer employs a drop or low slung load-supporting bed provided with decking and at least one channel-shaped longitudinal cycle track having a pivoted ramp portion. These features permit the cycle to be driven onto the trailer under power. A stored cycle is confined by the track, the ramp and a wheel well located at the forward end of the track, all of which engage only the cycle tires. Secure retention of a stored cycle is accomplished solely by clamping mechanism which compresses the cycle in the longitudinal direction between surfaces of the wheel well and the ramp.
