Trailering the R1200RS

I have no garage space presently so it would have to store it in my back yard which means manually getting it through the gate in the fence. I have looked at the ridiculously priced Kendon trailers and the narrowest of these has a max width of 6 ft and weighs 340#. I hardly think that pulling that mass uphill to my fence gate would be easy, and (without measuring) my gate is hardly wide enough anyway. It's a beautiful trailer but at almost $4000 for the occasional tow, it is not worth it for me.

So, the question - anyone know of any narrower light weight trailers that would suit my needs. I did a search a couple of times, and it seems that the selection is not good.

Buy a good aluminum ramp and put the bike in the back of your truck.
Ramps like this break down to four sections.
