I don't think the 1000 pounds of weight would be an issue for the truck once loaded into the F350. The size is an issue as it may just barley fit. Loading and unloading would concern me unless a dropped bike is a non-issue.

Transittions can produce anxiety in many situations. This would be another.

Interesting with a heavy load in the truck. I would worry about the trailer holding up the Harly. I would do what I could to get the truck level with just the Harley and then add a little load distribution to get the truck almost back to how it is with just the Harley.

I have used loooong ramps. You better be ready to ride that bike up all the way. But if too fast can't brake to stop by front bed wall. You MUST secure the ramp to vehicle or you will pull it off truck as you ride up.

Finally, check the weight limit on your gate.
