Carrying Motorcycle

Hi,

I was going to strap a motorcycle onto the back of my SunnyBrook 30' 5th wheel, but after looking at a few horror stories and wondering about frame fractures I decided I needed to find a different solution.
Front of the truck seemed to be a reasonable Idea, but cooling and lighting were a major worry. Adding a castor type extension was too expensive (for poor little me)

Anyway, I was going to get a small scooter and put it inside, but this was lighter, and more powerful (250cc). I built a locking base for it. I'll add pictures of that if anyones interested. Weight is 285lbs.

We go away next week, I'll let you know how it goes. I post because I have seen a lot of interest in taking alternative transport on vacation. 14mpg gets old pretty quick! :(




If that link doesn't work, try THIS

We ran into a guy a couple of weeks ago camping near the Dells here in WI. He had a little scooter, smaller than your bike and that's exactly what he did. I asked him how he travels with the scooter and that's when he told me he just carries it into his TT and has a way to secure it so it doesn't "flop around". He loves it, and it gets 100 MPG!

I thought it was pretty cool, small but he's able to get around the campground really well and go sight seeing with it too.
