Someone...anyone?

 

Wait, Zuk does turnkey service now? I thought he only did loose thirds

 

Nice! I'll see you on the other side. Lol

 

When I got pricing from him like a year ago that is all he did. Seems he is offering more now.

 

Personally I love my sPOD it's a bit more expensive but IMO it's well worth it

 

so what makes it worth the extra coin then?

 

Long shot, but does anyone have a little-man step for loading dirt bikes like shown here. Looking to borrow and tryout once before I order. 6 pack for your troubles.



My 10' arced ramp puts the bars above my head before I can get to the tailgate

 

I read this and said "wut" then read it again and laughed.

 

Have you tried a straight ramp? Sometimes the arch makes a difference.

Speaking of dirt bikes...
I've been lusting over the CBI bed rack but alas:


Cross bars make carrying dirt bikes difficult!

I'm kinda inclined to see if I can't get some custom quick release fasteners to latch the rear 2 cross bars on...


Pop the cotter pins, pull the bars off, load the bikes...

 

I just picked up an aluminum CBI rack from a buddy. whole rack weighs what one of my old bed bars did

 

So your dropping it off to me when?

 

3rd gen specific homie

 

To start I didn't have anywhere I liked to mount the switch pros switch system.

Again these are all in my opinion. Which means nothing to anyone but me.

But the sPODs come with 8 circuits rated @30amps @ 12.5vdc per circuit, you can daisy chain 8-32 circuits or 4 "sources"
The system will protect from 1.5 amps to 30 amps automatically Without relays or breakers hooked up.
Touch screen has Voltage feedback / temp of the "source"

Each switch is programmable for:
Dimming
Strobe
Flash
Momentary
Switch Linking
On Road & Off Road mode of operation

 

I always use my ice chest as a step up when loading bikes. All of my bikes weight a freaking ton too.

 

I always just had an arc ramp that I could walk up with the bike. Worked good and you don't have to think as much about where you put your feet

 

Nice. Hopefully my budget allows for more mod money soon.

Speaking of mods I'm also considering getting rid of my flotilla of weedy old dirt bikes and going a different direction... Honda ruckus-es (ruckii?). Slow little 50cc lawn chairs, but such a huge aftermarket you can brace them up and "long travel" them into being little hilarious adventure bikes. Big plus that they're simple and not intimidating at all for new riders, so I can take my non-rider friends along on little outings. Sub 200-lb curb weight makes loading and recovery a snap, and those little engines are pretty bomb proof.



Goofy little shits can do an awful lot with like... 1 and one quarter of a horsepower.

 

That is awesome!

 

My straight ramp is shorter/steeper, so I'm not really a fan.

Tried a 24" step ladder, but it ends up too far from the tailgate, or the handle bars are over my head before I get to the step. This bike is pretty light.

Trying to avoid a long full width ramp since somebody the bed. The ultimate bro-truck accessory doesn't play nice with bro-truck.

Maybe I'm just being a bitch. I don't like to struggle when I'm tired.

 

What about those hitch bike carriers? You can have a bed rack and a dirt bike?
