I've always put bikes in the bed but those are lighter bikes (sport/dirt) and a longer (6') bed. I usually back into a ditch or find a shop that will let me use their loading ramp, much safer.

Being able to place a motorcycle in the back is the #1 purpose of my Tacoma. I've placed two super bikes, a generator and lots of other gear back there. Then I tied it all down forcing it into the bed and tailgate, without issue so far. Gas milage is far from stellar but thats pretty much the story of the tacoma, it seems.
A wheel chock in the front and a good tie down system that doesn't hurt the bike will help immensely. Biggest game changer over the years was getting carabiner ratchet straps, no more fumbling with the hooks, them slipping out all while trying to hold the bike (before I had a chalk)

Sick S1KRR. Hauling my bike to the track without having to use a trailer is the #1 reason I'm getting a Tacoma. Everything else is secondary. I've never had any issues or sketchy moments loading bikes into the back of any truck, so I'm not sure why there is always some chatter against it. I can see having to resort to a trailer for a huge Harley, but why ride a Harley?
