Re: How do you load your bike
yea thats the proplem i just got the bike last saturday so no ramps no lot! . sucks i ride 30 minutes to work and i get home a 6 at night so its already dark! no lights on the bike either.
As soon as i get ramps im goin to the lot for the first time ( if i can find one) and i also flipped my atv the day before gettin the f4i and twisted my knee and fracture the top of my hand . So ive been riding up and down the street ****** off till the neigbors complained
i wanted to do a kickstand trick off the bike and kick them right in the gooch!!

Re: How do you load your bike
well my truck is a little to big to use a ramp with..
but i'm really lucky that the tail gate is only like a foot over a loading dock.. and all loading docks are the same height.. I keep my bike at the plant where i work and the lot that i ride at has an abandoned building that i use there loading dock to unload.. so unless they got a loading dock.. i gotta hitch a ride with someone!

I used to have a F350 with a 9 inch lift and loaded my bike in all the time. just parked on a small slant, a 9 foot ramp, and a 2 foot ladder. Loaded it myself all the time.
Just crank the idle to like 6 grand and walk it up.
Now I have a F350 with a 6 inch lift and do the same thing. the 3 inches made a big difference. can park anywhere i want now and dont have a problem loading.

Re: How do you load your bike
I got two small curved ramps, look like this
they got a little more curve to it though, but its super easy to load up a bike, just walk up the ramp with the bike in gear. I had to haul my buddys lowered gixxer and his lower fairing BARELY brushed by on the tailgate.

Don't know if any of you have a harbor freight tools locally....but I picked up this tri fold on sale a couple months ago for $99, and it works better than any I have ever used, easy for one person to walk up each side with the bike, or load by yourself. I have had a heavy custom harley on it as well and it didn't bend a bit, pretty dang strong for the price.

Re: How do you load your bike
Man im 5 '8" and load both my 1000 and my f4i by myself. W 1 standard db ramp in both stock height silverado and s10..
Get some nuts between ur legs practice a few tiMes and jus do it. Pik up soft straps and itll make the job 100xs easier. Also try strappin the ramp tight agai st the bed so it dont go shootin out on u if ur squidly w the clutch...
Btw i ride both bikes in unless im puttin 2 in the truk. Then i stand next to truck and guide it in
