Where can I rent a loading ramp?

[MickMcGeough]

I'm picking up a motorcycle from out of town and I need a loading ramp to get it in and out of a pickup truck.

I expected the moving truck companies to rent these but no luck so far. I found a place "Radar's Rentals" that will rent one, but it's only 2 feet wide and I think I'd need something a bit wider, maybe not...

Any suggestions?

Try calling some bike shops. If they don't have 'em, they'll likely know where to get one.

Get one of your buddies to be a man and 'ramp up.'

2 feet is pretty wide.. I use a 2 x 10 to load my dirtbike in my truck. I guess it depends how big/heavy a bike.

Not big at all, 375lbs. Just haven't done it before and it seemed narrow.

That's an excellent idea

2 feet wide should be plenty to load a bike.

Use two people.. a 10 x 2 should hold it. Get the bike half way up together.. Climb up into the bed while buddy on the ground holds the brake lever.. One guy pulls the other pushes.
