I wish the top bunk would be an option. But since I pretty much live in my truck. When out on the road. I've got the catwalk as my only option. Plus even there I have to worry about trailer swing. Really from a box I have had strapped down there before. I know the biggest issue I'll have is the handle bar width. But I think with the front wheel off and those turned side ways. It should work. Just want it secure. Plus I'll need a cover. Unless I want it covered in road dirt.

I put an average of 1000 miles a year for more than 10 years on the bike I mounted on the headache rack. You can usually figure out something similar attached to the bracing for the stacks.
IMPORTATANT; Whatever you use, make sure you either bag the bike or cover it securely.
The wash, particularly in the winter will destroy them. The easier it is to get to and use, the more often you will be likely to use it.
I cannot stress how many times my bike came in handy for more than just an occasional joy ride.
Do it....Another Canadian driver, cuzzin it, Big Road Skateboard and 1 other person Thank this. -
There are 2 Allen screws on the handlebars. Loosen them, turn the handlebars 90 deg., either way depending on needed clearance.
Tighten them. Every bike quick tool has the right size wrench. No need to remove the wheel.
Adds extra clearance AND any body who tries to steal it is going to have a heck of time riding it....

Take a look at the EUROBIKE,,folding mountain bike 26" frame. Storage in the bunk more feasible. Folding bikes have evolved
