I do not have a toyhauler myself but yesterday, I saw a guy unload, by himself, his bike from the back of a pickup. Two factors struck me as his feet while on the bike could touch the ramp and bed of the truck and both hands on the handlebars at all times for balance. Ramps where pinned so that is done with a toyhauler door.

The other factor was the winch mounted on the front of the bed in the pickup on a special fabricated bracket. His wife controlled the pigtail to the winch and without starting the bike, slowly unloaded the bike without a waiver with the conclusion that he had done it many times before.

Can't wait to see it load. Think snowmobile winch, ATV winch, 1000lbs capacity. I would not think remote control winch would work as well as you cannot keep both hands on the bars. Mounting the winch high would pull better than mounted low as his connection on the bike was somewhere near his headlight.

Just a thought.
