You must have a serious suspension in that truck....

You are a guy that really needs a toy hauler trailer...

I watched to see how you strapped down 2 bikes without rubbing fairings with tie-downs. Then I saw you deadlift a Busa and realized I’m already out. I’d be packing my vertebrae in a separate suitcase.

8m only running 65% of what my truck can handle

...but if you went 5th wheel......

Good job regardless of getting two behemoth bikes in the back of that truck, my hat's off to you.

Nice work and setup. You really should consider the PitBull trailer stands. No straps and no pressure on the suspension. Fast too.

Everything always looks much easier at Brian’s house.

Made it safe to first camp 325 miles from home. Had a ER vet visit at 11:30 for a injured tail. Then met up with Rob @Boosted Cycle Perf in north Houston. His project bike got a new clutch by the way his sleeve tattoos are sparkplugs, and pistons. Super art work.

What an excellent fully equipped setup Bryan , I think taking the bikes and of course your fur babies is the absolute best way to holiday !! Take care and hope you and your missus have a great time on your adventure mate .

Walking all 3 individually gets our miles in

Dogs trump bikes when going camping.

Thanks. I will need to see if I can fit my busa in the back of my short box Tundra with the tailgate down. I have two bikes but I think I would make two trips for the first go around....maybe.

Nice work and setup. You really should consider the PitBull trailer stands. No straps and no pressure on the suspension. Fast too.

I have one for the busa and it looks like is going to work great bolted to a wood floor constructed from 2 x 4s and some 1/2" plywood with eye bolts at each corner to strap to a steel trailer bed. Could work in the back of a pickup too but would raise the whole thing a couple inches.

Where'd you buy the ramps and where do you load them for the trip?

I Used to carry 2 in my 96 a long time ago.
Bar Straps crisscrossed and never a problem.
