    You could sort a cheap trailer basic as simple flat deck, tow it one way (in the middle of the night haha) with a borrowed light board so it doesn't cover your vehicle's tail lights to get to the block. Once you've got the thing there the quad could basically live on the trailer, if it's a tipper deck you possibly don't even need ramps. My thinking there is with modern quads usually being auto transmissions towing them is generally not considered good. It's the same as the modern auto cars, it's recommended to recover them onto a tow truck deck and cargo them anywhere. I think the trx500 is a servo controlled manual trans? So to be fair I have no direct experience of that trans (my one is a trx300 manual and the other I use is a proper auto Honda dunno what model). But I know the transmissions are more expensive than a basic cheap trailer!!!
