Another wtdoom stupid question

[wtdoom]

I suspect I may know the answer to this but can you use a pickup to move motorbikes around ?
To trackdays etc I mean

Please be gentle

Yes, if the bike fits and you can get the bike into the load bed, you might need a long ramp though.

Id say the practicality depends on the height of the load bay.

If it's a 4x4 type then you'll need a bit of help to load safely!

What surprises me is that these people were okay being filmed. Firstly it is tempting providence but more importantly where is the upside? If you get it right...who gives a st...but if you get it wrong your nearest and dearest can share the pain (ie tease you remorselessly in perpetuity) and you get internet fame for all the wrong reasons.

We've got a navara and couldn't imagine how annoying it would be to get a bike in. I struggle to Chuck my two dogs in the back it's pretty high. And it'd only fit if the tailgate was down and even then I think it'd hang out.

Most of the clips seem to be have been filmed by family/friends and therefore likely at the request or at least with agreement of those filmed. So just don't ask them to film?
