The Panhead is less than 700 lb for sure maybe a bit less than that. I think to make this work (with a tailgate and receiver hitch both rated for a max of 400 lb each) I will temporarily attach the heavy duty plywood (reinforced?) to the very front of the bed floor (not tie-downs) so that weight on the far end will be not extreme due to the stiffness of the base. At this point I'm just spitballing, but I can't think of anything different right now, and I want to avoid the trailer if at all possible.
Sounds like that might work with reinforce plywood to distribute the weight better, especially anchoring it down.

This is in my stable with the other 11 bikes. I thought that I needed a "Maverick" in the stable to haul the bikes to and from the race track next Summer.

I was on the fence about the Maverick, but seeing the picture of the 2 dirt bikes in the bed sold me. This is my current setup to haul my 2020 KX450 to the track

Wow you tow with that little car? Is that a Fiat 500?!! I wouldn't have thought a car like that could tow anything! I like you're ability to adapt and overcome!! A Maverick will certainly be great for your needs!!

2013 Honda GoldWing Trike and 2014 Honda Valkyrie. My wife and I rode the trike across the country this past Spring. NY to CA and back. 33 days and 9249 miles. It was a blast!

I'll bet that was an awesome trip! I once rode from Maryland to Arizona and it was a blast!
