Why would you be worried bout leaving a bike on the trailer. Not a darn thing is going to happen.
!. many bike theirs are inside jobs
2. Harley is nit even close to most stolen bike.
3. Why are they going to mess with yours that just happens to be there. Most are planned.

The guy asked for help, he didn`t ask who the real bikers were.
@Red Dragons As already posted, just stay in a decent hotel, secure the motorcycle and trailer with real security chain (not junk chain from a hardware store) and don`t obsess over the bike.
Moving is stressful enough without worrying about a motorcycle.
One more thing, don`t put Harley Davidson decals on an enclosed trailer.

I'm moving from TX to CO, so the drive will require an overnight somewhere. I'm looking into trailers but I'm too paranoid to leave the bike on an open trailer in a hotel parking lot overnight...just seems too easy to steal the trailer. I was considering an enclosed U-haul trailer but wasn't sure they can handle the weight on their sketchy ramps or their flimsy metal flooring. Haven't looked into shipping prices yet, but assumed that would be the most expensive option. Ideas?
Maybe buy full coverage insurance for your bike before you bring it out into the big, bad world?

Every time someone asks about a trailer this type of nonsense gets posted.
The guy asked for help, he didn`t ask who the real bikers were.
