Default Bike in a Van?
Does anybody know if a bike (1000RR) will fit in the back of a panel van - if you had a ramp to drive it in?

Something like this:

Why dont you just measure it or get demensions. You riding it in might be an issue, but someone could grab it inside and wheel it in. It looks like it should fit. I put a 600rr in an econoline 3500

Wow. I never would've imagined that. I guess a normal panel van or work van shouldn't be a problem then.

Thanks for the info and the pic!

I new some cats that put an R1 in an Escalade (no joke)! I've had a 929 in a van like that so I think your fine. If anything, just lay the mirrors back.

My brother brought home his 900RR in a ford van just like it. No problems, lots of space and it took three of us to lift it up.

If you're moving fast enough I'm sure it's possible.
