Welcome to the,forum!
How about a small winch that is remote controlled?
You could hook it to the triple tree with a nylon strap, and straddle the seat; while it rolls up the ramp.

One more thing...
You might need to figure out a portable fairlead; to make the pull work. Perhaps a short metal stand with a roller on it. This would allow you to re-direct the pull from the winch, and make it act like it was closer to the top of the ramp.

If you have the two sofas and the gates for the deck, just the bike will put you at maximum axle weight. any lift would put you over not only axle weight but also max tire capacity.

I'm 73 and still ride my dresser in and out. I do carry two five foot 2x10's and place them half way on the ramp on each side of the bike. This way my feet don't dangle when half on, half off the ramp.

I have a 2003 ultra that i have been able to load without too much of a problem but I purchased a 2018 m8 limited and what a difference.This thing is a beast.Also I have had the bike slipping on the ramp.Don`t know what they used for the coating but it is terrible.We purchased this rv used and am wondering if the people put something on it to make it look nice like armor-all or something.Any suggestions would be appreciated.I`m 66 but getting a little nervous loading and unloading.Thanks

There must be some sort of "Traction Spray" available.
I think the NASCAR guys put it down in and around their pit boxes.

They used to just spill cans of Coke, and let it dry...
VERY sticky; but yuck!
