Abstract
A trailer to be towed behind a motor vehicle for transporting a motorcycle. The trailer has a frame with a U-shaped opening in the rear which supports a tilting frame which is hinged to the middle of the trailer. A long guide rail is held on a floor supported by the tilting frame. This permits the user to ride a motorcycle up the tilting trailer floor until it passes the center of gravity at which time the tilting floor and guide rail tilt forward so that the floor and guide rail are horizontal with the trailer floor.
