I have a 2022 Sport S with a 3.6 e-Torque.

I have a 5x8 trailer I need to haul my motorcycle in. Probably looking at around 1600 to 1800 pounds maximum.

Will I have any issues towing with my Sport? A good portion of the towing will be in the mountains, looking at about a 4 hour trip one way, so 8 hours total.

Just make sure you have enough weight forward for adequate tounge weight or it will wag like a son of a bitch. At least 10% of the weight for tounge weight is needed.

No problem.
Just make sure you have the trailer's weight distributed properly. You do not want to have a badly weighted trailer on any vehicle, but even more so on the short wheelbase of a 2-door.

You're good. Just load it like has been suggested. Towed my Harley on a similar trailer with no issues.
