I'm thinking of making a motorcycle ramp 8 ft long & 3 ft wide with 3/4 inch
plywood to load a 600 lb bike on a car hauler trailer. Will the 3/4 " plywood
hold the weight?


i'll just leave this here . . .

I'm amazed (not really) at the lack of thinking from many of the loaders
in the videos. The last video really stood out where the truck is facing
decline on driveway, which raises the bed of the truck. If people had
sense, they would find a spot where the tail of the truck would be at a
lower point from the ground, such as the end of the driveway.

The OP never stated the height of his car hauling trailer. Many or low
to the ground and this, makes a difference to the type of ramp he can make.
