    Default motorcycle ramp

    Has anyone here tried out the "EZ Rider Big Boy ramp"... it comes up to 12 feet long and is wide enough if you leave the sections separate. I'd love to be able to back up my f3 into my pickup truck bead if need be.

    A few quick thoughts:
    What is their load capacity?
    If you spread them out wide enough to catch the front wheels: will the rear wheel still have a place in this dance?

    We have ramps like the "EZ Rider Big Boy ramp" except the middle ramp is the same width as the outer two. We got it to put my two-wheelie in the back of the truck. It's now used to trailering Spyders.

    To load a Spyder, the ramps are split exactly to the path of the three tires. Secure the ramps to the trailer or truck. You have to drive the Spyder dead straight up the ramps or down, no turning to correct. A spotter watching is a good thing.

    If you're going to back the F3 on the truck, you'll have to take the windshield off. It might break.

    Bob... There are three separate ramps. I figured I would have to back it in because the spyder wheels cant pass the wheel well of the truck going in forward.

    Backing up a ramp may pose a traction problem. To lessen the angle a bit put the truck's front wheels up on some ramps or blocks.
