Thank you so much dude, had to load my bike at 6am in the morning last weekend with no ramp and this helped a ton. But definitely harder to do when you’re a buck fifty and have a lifted truck 😂
Aside from making it look easy, dude you are strong as hell ! lol. New rider, no experience whatsoever w/ loading a bike so...can't say I'm ready for this process / method lol. Thanks for the video tho !!! Will add it to the memory in a time of need.
I'm 5' 11", 120 lbs and I definitely can't lift my wr250r (300 lbs ish) into a truck bed. I actually knocked it over in my garage trying to pick up the front end. I barely got it off the ground before basically tackling the bike through my workbench. I wish it was on video. It probably looked hilarious.
i have ramps, and yea, its a process, unfold them, strap them to hitch so they dont slide, slowly guide bike down, unstrap ramps, fold up, store in back of truck and need to lock up while riding. is it difficult? no, but this method i fine easier, quicker, and just less equipment. especially if you just go a slight decline. he could have reduced the height of this entire process by the looks of it by just moving his truck a few inches forward too.
I'm 5'10" 210 lbs and 54 yrs. Had shoulder, right middle finger and thumb surgery on 4/30/19. Just used this method to transport Husky te300i to a garage for storage. It's not easy but just go slow and USE YOUR LEGS. It you try and cowboy it your fucked. Good Luck
For those commenting about they can't do this coz they're weak or something, u probably shouldn't even own a dirtbike in the first place. (No offense, but its for your own good). Trust me on this, u gotta be at least strong to own a dirtbike. My cousin is 5'7 and weighs 120-125 lbs, owns a 250cc dirtbike, there's a time wherein he took the wrong dirt turn on a berm and he had fallen off his bike, he couldn't stand up after the bike has fallen over his left leg and needed my help just to stand the bike up. He's ok for the most part but he got bruises on his thighs and surprisingly, no broken bones coz I guess nothing hit his leg coz the handlebar was in the way except that his own bike was just heavy probably weighing around 150 kgs which is literally 3 times his own weight. If ur weak, better just get a mountain bike.
@@tarbosa5071 if ur trying to diss me about not being in a mtb park, guess again buddy. I am an mtb enduro guy. Also, wtf is the connection between being that you should be more than enough physically able to handle a dirtbike and going to an mtb park? Tf is ur point?
@@sramvokermvp278 You said: If ur weak, better just get a mountain bike sounds like you are dissing mountain bike riders by saying they are weak? does it not
I used the same method on my RMZ450 when I first brought it home with no problems, and I’m only 5’7 @ 150lbs 🤷🏼♂️ Granted, my Hitch Mounted Carrier is MUCH easier for loading/unloading but, it’s nice to know that if I HAVE to use the “Solo with no ramp” method I can without issue 👍🏻
I do this but instead of loading in the center of the bed, do it near the side so I can walk it in once it’s in the truck. I have tie-downs ready in bed and hook one to the handlebar and lean the bike away. Then I get in the bed, center the bike and secure it with both tie-downs.
Notice this is done before the ride. He has to do 5 hours of hard riding and forearm pump before he is proving something here. LOL HE IS IN THE DRIVEWAY.... boom as he says.... boom...
When I was 19 I was a college athlete in amazing shape and very strong. I ruptured a disc in my low back doing this and now Im 43 and just had my 5th back surgery. Get a ramp. Get help. Don't risk your back.
I weigh 150 and I got a yz450f steel frame barley have arms.. trying to do the first part getting the front tire up lmao I can almost do it ,just need to lift it a couple more inches , Edit I got bike on by myself , getting the front tire up is the easy part JS lmao and when you have a lifted truck on top of it. It kinda sucks , but oh well
I am a new rider, so new I havent even rode the bike I purchased yet. I have the same truck and bought a WR250r today. The owner had a ramp and when I got it home I watched this video a few times and than attempted it. It not only tore the top of the tailgate up on my truck but the bike turned while pulling off the tailgate and landed on my leg, busted up my elbow falling backwards, my knee has a big scrape and big bruise I have a huge bump sticking out if my shin and Im pretty sure my ankle is broken. In fact I drove myself to the ER early but didn’t get the Xrays because they were short staff and the wait (In ER) would have been over an hour. I am self treating it for tonight and it hurts. I do not recommend this to anyone - Its dangerous. I am 6’ 180 pounds and in good shape but 300 pounds dropping on your leg is 300 pounds dropping on your leg..… What a bummer… Laying in bed with my leg raised and iced typing this. One error and you could end up like I just did. 🤷♂️
yeah, that bike is too heavy for this, not to mention unloading it like this would not work due to short suspension travel. This technique is good for lighter dual sports or enduro bikes.
Looks to me using a ramp is a multi-process time consuming pain in the ass compared to this method. I'll probably ditch my ramp if this method is as easy as it looks.
Ramps can be easily stolen, while you're out riding. It's a useful thing to know imo. Also unloading looks easier than using ramps, no heavy lifting required. I may use this method to unload all the time even with ramps.

Me right now lol
Looks easy... well see how easy it is when my twig arms do it in 2 hours
I understand that bro 😂
😂😂
So was it possible 🤔
@@zeusgutierrez626 he got heart attack so we will probably never hear back from him
😂😂😂
Salute to you for how easy u made it look
Aside from making it look easy, dude you are strong as hell ! lol. New rider, no experience whatsoever w/ loading a bike so...can't say I'm ready for this process / method lol. Thanks for the video tho !!! Will add it to the memory in a time of need.
Just takes coordination and practice. You just gotta pull it up to the truck and give it a try you’ll figure it out
We are all as strong as hell. Some of us just don’t know it.
Can be done easily on Smaller Dirt bikes but not so easy with the Big Boys you need two people to be Safe till you feel you can do it Yourself.
@@philbuck365 Some folks have never pushed past the pain and think the pain means "I can't".
I weigh 13 pounds and I loaded my truck on top of my bike, thank you
You're biceps are bigger than my entire torso, but these tips are still helpful. Thanks!
Looks easy is easy I am alone and wanna go ride my 125 just used this video got it right in my truck not any problems thanks bud
I have a 400+ pound bike and a 3.5 foot high tailgate. I weigh 120 pounds. I don't think this will work for me, but thanks for making the video.
why do you feel the need to own a 400 lb bike? compensating for something?
@@cody5495 it's from the 80s and it's a dog, but I recently got a newer 2 stroke.
Lmfao same. Also 400lb wtf bike is it?
@@cody5495 my CBR is about 400lbs dry. Had to load it in the truck yesterday just wish I looked up this video first
@@cody5495 Exactly
Never seen anyone do this alone . I have done with 2 people and I got to say this is dope and I will try on my 450.
Now I know why the rear shock linkage hangs down below the swing arm. It hooks onto the tailgate when you’re loading without ramps.
It helps that you're a big dude. Good tutorial.

''The trick is to lift with your back.'' - Peter Griffin
nice... best video I've seen on this topic... tks
wish i watched this before i unloaded my first bike, I almost got crushed unloading it.
Made that look easy my guy 💪🏽. Used this method with my crf450. Lifting was easy getting it high enough due to hieght was the tricky part haha
i have ramps, and yea, its a process, unfold them, strap them to hitch so they dont slide, slowly guide bike down, unstrap ramps, fold up, store in back of truck and need to lock up while riding. is it difficult? no, but this method i fine easier, quicker, and just less equipment. especially if you just go a slight decline. he could have reduced the height of this entire process by the looks of it by just moving his truck a few inches forward too.
The trick is, as with anything else in this life, to be really fn powerful.
U made that look so easy
I’m 5’10” and 229lbs… hopefully I can do this when I go riding this afternoon. Don’t wanna haul a 16” trailer 1.5 hours one way just for my dirtbike 😂
Holy shit your the man I don’t know if I can do that I’m 5 foot 8 170 53 years old but I’m going to try
I'm 5'10" 210 lbs and 54 yrs. Had shoulder, right middle finger and thumb surgery on 4/30/19. Just used this method to transport Husky te300i to a garage for storage. It's not easy but just go slow and USE YOUR LEGS. It you try and cowboy it your fucked. Good Luck
I usually just let it slide down and let it rip of the plastic from the tailgait when im unloading
Hahahahahahahah

That was crazy simple, but not everyone is a Hercules like you.
Holy shit man!!! Good to know 😮
Impressive! Thanks for the help.
Thanks VINCENT I’m definitely going to practice that
Cool guy alert. Was hoping this guy was gonna try and lift from the front fender.
This is how I load and unload my bike, after a longer day of riding I don’t look forward to it lol to suborn to buy a ramp though
Sweet. Now do it with a T7. :)
How is the bike sitting there by itself when you got the front tire in the bed and the rear tire dangling off the back?.?

Good video thanks. I rate it 5 stars
nice one!
Do you recommend 5ft or 6ft bed truck ?
6ft is obviously better, but I believe he's doing it on a 5.5ft bed. Both will work.
I do this but instead of loading in the center of the bed, do it near the side so I can walk it in once it’s in the truck. I have tie-downs ready in bed and hook one to the handlebar and lean the bike away. Then I get in the bed, center the bike and secure it with both tie-downs.
So butch..so handsome..but yet so gentle
Can you do the same with a harley?
No
Only if you're Patrick Baboumian
Excellent man...👍👍👍
How about regular cruiser bike?
This is usually how I do it, same thing with atvs, gotta get it close to the truck though then back truck up, not good for carbs
I slipped a disc watching this.
Notice this is done before the ride. He has to do 5 hours of hard riding and forearm pump before he is proving something here. LOL HE IS IN THE DRIVEWAY.... boom as he says.... boom...
"I lift things up and down, look..."
Couldn't you just pop the clutch and get the bike into it to balance point, Then just ride the rest of the way up the truck?
When I was 19 I was a college athlete in amazing shape and very strong. I ruptured a disc in my low back doing this and now Im 43 and just had my 5th back surgery.
Get a ramp. Get help. Don't risk your back.
Thanks!

Nice
Helps to be tall.. at 5'8" I can hardly load one with a ramp.
kdxkyle Midget
I’m an inch taller, no problem here.
I use two ramps side by side. Walk up one while pushing bike up on the other
Come on dude I'm 5'4 and I can it's easy
KLR 650 ?
wait till this dude is about 60 and then all that lifting pain will never go away...
That was pretty fuckin impressive
Very easy, thanks a bunch
Wow, i mean that's just... wow

I ain’t that stronk

yeah, that bike is too heavy for this, not to mention unloading it like this would not work due to short suspension travel. This technique is good for lighter dual sports or enduro bikes.
First step#1. Have forearms as big as a horses leg#2 then lift and repeat
Show me how to do this with a crf250L
Doesn't that hurt your back?
Now how do I do it if I have a 6 inch lift
Wheelie the bike up into it. Or back your truck against a berm or hill.
Or surreptitiously use a grocery store's loading dock if it has a ramp.
Try it on Rusi KRY150
Easy now, hard later. This is an easy way to herniate a disc actually

This will work with a MX bike, but not happening with a modern 300lb dual sport... but who wants to ride one of those clunkers!
Nice strong. But i can't carry my hypermotard

It is the simple way but idk about easy haha.
Can afford a 40K truck but not a ramp

Uhh shit… I’ll try it.
wE ALL AINT STRONG AS YOU mann!!
I couldn’t do this with my 230f it’s a fatty!
Next Vid, Dont waste time jacking your jeep when you can just lift it by hand.
Man bikes are easy as hell to steal after seeing this I guess you have to lock it to something
You still need keys to start the bike. In case of a tw200 for instance you can lock the forks.
People like you should be sent to jail for wasting your money on a ramp. I wish I could buy you
