Cruiser ramp to load my Honda VFR 1200 onto the bed of my Ram 2500 Cummins. Tailgate closes too! Trailer hooks up and rides nicely.

Thanks. I also have a wind spoiler that goes on the roof of the truck. Deflects the wind and bugs over the bike (sorry..no picture handy..)

Modifications to Your 3/4-1 ton TV

Not sure how my GL1200 would do on that sled. I did drive into a moving van from the side back in ‘96.

Can you say Got brakes?


Oh yeah back in topic an ARE cap with windoors was the biggest single why did I wait so long to do that accessory.

I use Blackvue, the aren't cheap but they work very well and once set up they never need to be touched until you need them.

Dash cam

My research led me to Street Guardian. Very good reviews. I’m happy with mine. If you want more memory, saved some money by buying a less memory model then switching out the mini SD card.

Maybe misunderstood. The van was not moving. It was a moving van, we moved from OH to OK and they wanted it in side to side not front to back.

Still tricky had to hit ramp with enough speed to get up clean and then hard binders. I drove, no helpers. All extra stuff removed, luggage cases mirrors windshield.

I think my driving skills then were pretty good. I was a MC training instructor then.
