Loading Vengeance 40D12 Toy Hauler in the rain

Has anyone put something on the ramp to help with the grip? its impossible to get my HD Street Glide up the ramp with any moisture on it.

I just raise the front of the trailer as high as possible and get a running start.
I do have a wheel chock strapped in so I don’t drive thru the sliding glass door.

I've loaded in the wet several times and never had any problems. Maybe a change in your method would help... I don't power up the ramp, I use the momentum of the bike and only use a small amount of throttle if I didn't get the momentum correct. When I load in my driveway I only have 6 to 8 feet of approach...this takes a little more commitment at launch but it still serves me well.

Welcome to the site.

I haven't loaded my Ultra yet. Can anyone take a pic on how you secure your bike in the garage? I might try to bring 2 bikes (Fatboy & Sportster). Any ideas on how to tie them down?
Thanks
