Anyone haul a sportbike yet? I've got a 600rr, and I'd just be curious to see how it fits in.

Question Rock little rocks

A few pounds of green railroad ballast. Each pail holds 70-80 lbs. There are 16 pails, therefore 1200 lbs give or take...flower pots another 60 lbs or so.

Re: Show/Tell us what you are haulin'

I wish you had a side shot. It sure looks like there was no body sag with that load onboard.

Re: Show/Tell us what you are haulin'

There was sag but it was nothing like a regular pickup does. The truck rides perfectly with the load, no sway, no wallowing, it pretty much rides as it does without the load. I do have a couple of pictures but they are not great. Since I have to pick up more of these rocks in a couple of weeks I shall be more diligent with the picture taking.
