Can you carry a scooter (motorcycle) in your truck?

I have seen a truck with a full sized honda 900 strapped on the back of a sleeper. I thought it was a great idea, but I couldn't tell ya if its legal.

 

The goped I have seen before.

 

Some trucks have special boxes (like a small shed) built onto the back of their trucks. They have a little ramp that comes down so that they can load and unload their motorcycle. A reefer would limit your space a little but you should still have enough room. Most companies store their spare tire up there too. So you could just get rid of that (depending on company policy) and there would be room. I took my spare off and had a tool box installed back there on one of my trucks. The only other concern would be weight. If it were a full size motorcycle this may impede your weight limit when hauling heavy loads. The bed buggers are usually the trucks you see all this extra stuff on. They are usually the ones that have the spare time to do it also. I have actually been to Sturgis for bike week a few times while OTR. One of which we were broke down but it was still a blast though.

 

I'm sure you could fit a small skateboard wheeled scooter with weed eater motor power to get around a little quitcker. They fold up very small anc compact. I've got one I used to use at the drag strip when I was racing alot to get my time slips from the tower.

 

How about if you just have a small 1 gal jug and drain the fuel from the scooter into after riding. That would seal the gasoline fumes in....or is that a D.O.T. no-no? Yeah, I'm a newbie curuious about this subject, too. Not that I'm too lazy to walk to where I need to go...Just a time constraint thing...LOL

 

Good heavens....did anyone actually take a look at this set up on the link she sent? that thing gets 250 mpg! Supposedly...WOW!

 

lol..yeah pretty good mpg and the reason I know about them is because I plan to get one..I remember being young and everything I did was either on my bike or my horse well I've long since retired the bike but want the excersize and well it will sure make it nice to motor back after a long peddled ride and more incentive to do it....lol...Butttttttttt I will be putting a padded tractor seat on mine(jk)..HTH
