Hitch mounted motorcycle carrier for a CBR600RR?

Waiting for that ear to stand up haha. Dang I have a short now too so I know the pain. When I had my long bed, my cbr fit great haha

 

Found a pic of it but not on our Tacoma, one thing you'll need is a fork limiter that goes between the tire and fender so you can crank it down.

 

Does anyone know the diagonal measurement of the short bed? It may fit ever so tightly with the tailgate up..

 

no it wont. Highly possible if you flatten the rear tire i think

 

I think you'll be fine, but if you're really worried about the tailgate maybe put a three-quarter inch piece of plywood running from the front of the bed all the way to the leading edge of the tailgate. That should considerably reduce some of the force on the tailgate but dispersing it up through the bed.

 

Old school.

 

Hmm... flatten the tire... good possibility I’ll try this

 

Good point, that seems like a good option

 

One of those tailgate extenders are great for this.

Edit:

 

Damn I’m jealous

 

The Uhaul motorcycle trailer is like $14 a day to rent, much easier than loading the bike in and out of the bed.

 

So I could be wrong but my cbr is 79.3 inches long, or 201.4 cm long

If you flatten the rear tire I’ll lose 9.9 cm of length (191.5 cm)

However after using some of the mathematicals, Ive concluded the height and width of the bed give you diagonal length of 165cm so I still am quite a bit off lol

 

Don’t be. The bike looks like this and has since been taken by insurance lol

 

X2

The ass end of a 600 hanging out on the tailgate isn't going to hurt a thing. Nada.

 

Honestly, the tire doesn’t sit nor touch the tailgate if open. The only reason it’s down is because the tire barely sticks out past the tail lights.

Edit: I never used a stand, chock, etc. just some canyon dancers.

 

Canyon Dancers were a game changer in the world of bike transport.
I used all manner of strapping techniques for a long time before someone handed me the CD's.

Was like "where have you been all my life.." lol

 

Be a man and leave the truck and make the run on the bike. Problem solved.

 

See German Shepherd above.

 

Forward to 2:30.
