How many bikes can you haul?

[phroa]

Hi,
We're hoping to take as many motorcycles with us on the road as we can. Dirt bikes and race bikes, nothing Harley-sized.
Only snag is our preferred model, 320G, has an 11 foot garage. I'm not really expecting to fit more than two in there safely.
My better half is thinking three or maybe four can fit if they're nestled diagonally.

The tiedown anchors on one that we looked at seem to just be held in with basic screws to the flooring; I'm not confident in their ability to have more than one strap tied to them either (we'd have to double up).
Would have expected to see bolts going into the frame or something around the frame. Maybe someone could help me feel better about those?

Thanks

since you participate in the sport you likely know the best way to transport your bikes

I am quite sure it would be very inexpensive to modify the tiedowns

Very easy mod and likely only cost a few bucks to add reinforcements

If you use a Lock-n-load or moto cinch type system you are only limited by your widths which you can stagger by parking bikes front to back. Both systems attach to the floor and you don't deal with ratchet tie downs. Very nice!

Moto cinch with E track looks ideal, wow.

Yep. Pit Bull system is also good for your race bikes, but uses a spool system you may not like for off road dirt bikes.

I have both roadrace bikes and dirt bikes. I can pretty easily carry 3 roadracers or 4 dirt bikes.

I use a BoltItOn system that 1) doesn't require me drilling into the floor, and 2) gives me lots of configuration flexibility so I can change it to match how much or little I'm carrying.

Here are the race bikes will still room for one more.

And here are the dirt bikes - this time mixed with a couple of mountain bikes.

I wrote up my garage build in this thread .. 349M garage (with 2nd bath) modified & loaded.
Let me know if you want more info.

I fit 4 in the back of my 397TH. (12ft garage) I use WheelDocks on the front 3 bikes with the factory tie down locations in the floor. The docks are not bolted to the floor so I can adjust as needed. Once my fat tire mtn bike (not in picture) is loaded next to the trials bike, I am at capacity!
