Items On Catwalk...and Hydraulic Lines...

I had rack built on the catwalk area behind my cab where I carried my 250 Kawasaki motorcycle. I never had a problem from anyone about it.

 

Probably because it is legally secured not using bungee cords!

 

Not the bike itself, but I've ridden halfway across the country with duffle bags held on with bungies and a laptop hanging out of my saddle bags. If it weren't for parts falling off the bike I wouldn't have lost anything.

 

Too much anecdotal evidence, in this thread. Can someone post some actual regulation citations, from FMCSA? I have hydraulic hoses that are affixed to a PTO that are simply coiled and bungee corded to the deck plating on the cat walk. If this is a discrepancy, I would like to present this to my safety department to have it fixed. I didn't come out here to get tickets for my company. Thanks in advance!

 

It was good see @Injun post again. LOL!

 

Your point? This is still a relevant topic.
