Now that's some creative thinking!

wow, nice fabrication!

That's really nice. It is also a safe way to load the motorcycle.

Nice but I was expecting a motorcycle with a front end loader.

I thought only Harleys like to ride in the back of trucks lol just kidding,

I think I could do the front end loader with photoshop but bcp beat me to it. Harleys also like trailers. I've owned Harleys and
went to Sturgis on one about 1962. Been there 15 times over many years.
We trailer our Mustang convertible and haul the bike in the truck to Yuma, AZ for the winter.
I don't see any way to fit the tractor in but I'll miss it for the winter.

What a great contraption you made. Sure beats the old 2x10 and 3 guys wrestling to get a full dress bike onto a pickup.

It's a little nicer than my "motorcycle loader"

I'd like to see a video of that in action, as I'm having a hard time seeing how it works and how the loading ramps come apart to make the tailgate close.

I'd like to see a video of that in action, as I'm having a hard time seeing how it works and how the loading ramps come apart to make the tailgate close.

I have to leave the tailgate at home as the bike is about 8.5 ft. long and I have 6.5 ft box.

The back of the part that is always in the truck is supported by the receiver hitch.

There is an attachment point at the front of the truck mounted frame to attach the winch cable.

The winch and battery are both mounted on the dolly. The ramps are attached with a 7/16" pin which is also used to

secure them under the bike and dolly for travel.

I don't have a video and I think this description is about as clear as mud.

Next time I use it I will try to get a video.
