    I haven't been able to find this information other than Daily Direct/Haul Bikes which mostly does transport for individuals, not delivery of new bikes to dealers, it seems like. Thanks in advance for any direction

    This was a Koch truck delivering to a Indian dealership in Batton Rouge I saw. CRB posted a video of them setting up the ramps and unloading from the top deck. It is steeper than I would go down.

    Harley just shut down a factory, big layoffs. They’ve got too much inventory.

    Doesn’t seem like a good time to be hauling new bikes.

    Maybe they'll give me a bunch of $$$$ for my trade in and a big discount if they are trying to move inventory!! Been looking at one of these... IMG_20150503_140310846_HDR.jpg

    I imagine those fancy HD trucks with the custom sleepers will be a thing of the past soon. And yeah those ramps are a little iffy looking for sure

    I like the bike BigBob! I rode many a mile on a Harley before I felt my luck had run out. My last was an Electra Glide Classic, went from Ky to Texas to Cali to Vegas to Colorado and back in 21 days. Stayed in Long Beach for a week. Went to Florida many times. I sold it and haven't been on one since.

    The top deck ramps from what I gather are supposed to be set on the bottom deck ramps. In my picture the driver may not have set it up yet, or he had some big ones and liked the angle.
     
    BigBob410 Thanks this.
