This one looks pretty decent and folds up. I have some Black Widow ramps and they are real high quality.

I have this exact model from discount ramps (purchased through Amazon) except mine doesn't fold up...which in my opinion is better because it's already a little wobbly... adding a hinge just seems like it would make things worse.

The good. It's made out of aluminum so it's light. Which means it's easier to attach and remove from the hitch by yourself and minimizes the added weight to worry about when considering tongue capacity. It's also well built.

The bad. It's only rated for 400lbs... my 2014 Zero S is right at the limit (399lbs) and it could carry an FX or FXS or even Zero S/DS ZF9.8.  A DSR or SR pushes over 400lbs.  The ramp can also only be attached on the passenger side which means that it's easy to drive on by yourself but really hard to get off by yourself...unless you modify to allow the ramp to be attached to the drivers side too...then you could drive on and drive off (not ridding...just walking it but using the throttle to make things a LOT easier).

Does the brace work on a DS/DSR?   Dos it / can it damage the fender?  It looks like it will put stress on the bottom of the fenders well

If the fender attaches to the triple clamps with bolts underneath, and if the brace can rest against those bolts without stressing the fender, then it should be no problem.

Not sure if that specific version will fit a DS, but there are other options if you search the web for "adjustable fork brace".  Or, you can make one to fit (took me 5 minutes by cutting two 2X3's to the desired length and screwing them together).

Probably can't use any with the S, with it's lower fender.
