Good to know for future information.

Well,
As you've read, the system needed to carry a Honda Goldwing, or Concourse is quite substantial. I know, I did it. I installed a Hydralift. It by far, is the most outstanding lift/carrier on the market for this application. But, a couple of items here.
1. VERY costly, new--about $4,500, not including tax, shipping and install.
2. While it is the best unit, there's a whole TON of stuff to consider prior to the project.
There are multiple alternatives to your issue.
1. A trailer, open, closed or in between.
2. tow a pickup and let it carry the Wing, that's how we presently do it.
There's also this:

We've also considered this. This company is here in our local town of Lake Havasu City AZ. I've seen those units up and close. Pretty darn good construction. There is little to no weight on rear of the motor home. And, it's easy to back up, if and when needed. Just something to think about.
