"Real men of genius..."
Here's to you Mr motorcycle loader fabricator. 👌
Mr motorcycle loader FAabriCAaAtOR!!
It’s just a version of a hook lift waste truck or cable pull waste truck, as has already been said we haven’t seen it unload. Presumably it will need to be pulled back while paying out the winch cable. Don’t get me wrong it’s a good effort but needs enhancements.
Whatever happened to just riding motorcycles?
I know little dogs like to be carried around all day.
That is slick. I don’t even ride a motorcycle but could see this having possibilities for loading just about anything you could strap down to that platform.
Like garden tractors
Mowers
@@soillife1 I was thinking about the same. Even rotortiller, vibrating plates, trencher

I have thought about coming up with something like this for my motorcycle which is why I researched on youtube and yes I agree with you, I need this for other things..very handy!!
I laughed out loud when I saw this. The "commercial" lifts cost a fortune and you built one for almost nothing. Nice job! Thanks for the video, it was really enjoyable to watch!
You probably dont give a damn but does any of you know a tool to log back into an instagram account??
I was stupid forgot the login password. I love any tips you can offer me!
@Raphael Jack instablaster ;)
$3k is a fortune? That's what a nice open bike trailer costs. This thing is going to remove someone's finger when it starts loading crooked and they reach over to guide it.
That’s great. Show it coming back down.
If your front rollers are slightly higher than the back rollers it will probably move on its own. Or park on a slight hill when unloading.
Yea, getting a bike (or anything for that matter) into the bed is the easy part, getting it back out again is the problem.
I don't imagine it's too hard. Once you push it back with some slack to the balance point you can just lower it down with the winch.
@@deckmonkey1459 Yeah, but let's see it.
Let see you unload it
Over 35years of loading bikes and you my friend have a excellent setup. I'm 72 but have much respect for diy special people. 👍👏👏
Thank you for the kind comments sir, and thank you for watching!
Now that's what creative engineering is all about.
Um, just buy a trailer.
@@user-pk9vw2dp5i I have a trailer and it's 20ft and never forget towing my friends bike...Lol it looked really unnecessary and and felt like it too.
Big 4 "we put a step in the tail gate" smh
This guys over here making history. I hope you get paid for using your head not your back.
Looks great,only thing I'd say is to double check them welds on the truck side. 😬👌
brilliant idea but like most others i want to see it unloaded.
Have the front of the bike up over the tool box. Gravity will help with the off load. ...... Maybe.
Slack the line and pull until it teeters then spool out.
Air suspension at the rear of the truck and/or drive up ramps at the front of the truck, a tilting bed is another option.
@@hitop2365 tilting bed?? Air suspension?? I think that'd be overcomplicating it a bit. Why not just let the winch out and pull on the back a little, it's on rollers so it's not going to be incredibly difficult to slide out
@@imthedarknight-8755 Probably depends how much it’s being used? Pulling it out manually may come with risks either standing in the line of fire or pulling from an angle possibly risking back injury.
Slick, i mounted a winch and have been using ramps. 🇺🇸
Necessity is the mother of invention.. well done
thumbs up..... * that back tire has seen some nice mtn rd curves...!!
I have to say, that’s one of the most creative diy solutions I’ve seen a long time.
If that ain't slicker'n owl snot! Genious!
Pretty slick.
Rock on. I used one of those winches to pull a bent frame out when I crashed a car once.
Excellent engineering. All those guys crashing trying to ride their bike up a ramp are going wish they had this design.
Wow nice job. Would love to see the underside of the platform and see you take the bike out of the bed too. You did an excellent job. Awesome

My guy, nice job! You saw a need, didn’t like the ricing of commercial stuff, so tackled it yourself. Well done
So many uses. Delivery companies, home improvement stores; farm work. Camper shells it’s endless....... great job can’t wait to see V2.

And here's the final version: ua-cam.com/video/PhYCe2LrflA/v-deo.html
Having had an unloading fail myself, this caught my attention. Plywood and rusty steel looks way better than my new bike doing a half twist onto my driveway.

Surprising what you can get up to when you run outta beer. That's nice man.
Great job figuring that out.
Great work on the Ramp/Motorcycle truck Rack.
Nice rig
Yes. Coming off would be interesting

observation: As a jerry-rigger guy I'd say nice job but one possible negative. . . Requires lots of holes in new $70k truck beds.
That aside I'm a fan of trailers. I encourage guys to drop $3k on a cool safe trailer. Bling it out a little with upgraded bed and stuff. You'll forget the cost on the first use. And you can still use your truck bed for coolers and gear. Meant nicely.
I bet you could make a steel or even wood frame with rollers on it to lay in your bed without having to permanently attach it. If it fit snuggly around the wheel wells I think you'd be fine.
@@joshdemarco9270 Maybe sir but think of all the free space with a trailer. Try it once and you are convinced.I'm like George Carlin. I like "my stuff" on a trip. The 7-0's George before he was a total a$$hole.
@@itsruf1 I like the idea of a trailer, but free space is the exact reason I've never considered owning one. The plywood idea could be leaned up against the wall in a garage, a trailer is going to hog all kinds of space while it sits unused most of the time
@@joshdemarco9270 Currently I have a flatbed a dumper and a small enclosed. . YET no trailer is ever quite right. You want another often .
But at least a start is a start. Generally a guy who buys one says Why did I wait to long?
But the guy up there is doing good. No bashing. I can't judge.
Gotta love good old American ingenuity. Awesome work.
Make a video of it being unloaded and with two bikes. 🖒🖒

I was going to say something smart like Use a ramp. But got to admit that's pretty cool.👍
Good thinking. I admire your ingenuity.
Good job from an ex Automotive Engineer.
Bro, that puts the word EZ loader in the books......
Incredible! Thanks for sharing
Good solution to a complicated problem. Nice work
Pretty cool. A mini winch truck.
Nice. I use a nearby ditch to drop the truck wheels into. Puts the tailgate way down - then ride up the ramp.
Just on the thumbnail, I thought, "What are the hillbillies up to now?"
Very impressed! You thought of the pins to lock, the power cable, multiple rollers..... Thoughtful and well executed. Love it.

I’m an old guy, 60 but I still ride off road. What I can’t do any more is push my bikes up a ramp to get it in the truck, getting it out isn’t a problem yet but not as easy as it used to be. This looks to be a perfect solution to my problem and I think I will build a version for my dirt bikes. Thanks for the inspiration and great job on the lift.

Cool invention
OMG. I am totally gonna build this after I see your engineering drawings.
Really awesome !!!
Wasn't expecting it to work as flawless as it did. Great work and smart thinking.
Great backyard Engineering!!
I'm impressed- well I hope you've figured out your calling!!
Good Luck!!
I dig it. Nice job, man. Gotta love welding and fab skills with a little patience and common sense.
Pretty darn impressive. Great job.
Excellent!
I made a similar thing to tow my bike up into my G10 work van. I used a spreader bar hooked to allthread through the front axle hole. and an ATV winch between the seats. I had to walk it up but, it sure made life easier on my arthritic old ass. ZX14R is pretty heavy for a run up the ramp and duck style loading that I used to do.
Truly ingenious. Anyone who’s ever tried to load a bike by themselves can appreciate what you’ve done. Awesome job man.
Nice! For those that can’t weld or want permeant brackets welded in the bed use nut-certs the bed rollers can be bolted in and off when needed or not. I have a simpler setup in a work van.
Just make a secondary platform that sits in the bed that can be removed.
Random recommendation, but simply put very awesome. Can't wait for a v2

And the final V3 is here: ua-cam.com/video/PhYCe2LrflA/v-deo.html
This idea is like having another employee. Cool idea 👍
Nice set up.
Get rid of the wood and use aluminum diamond plate. That would look sweet. I know it's a proto type. Just a suggestion.

Every biker with a truck has longed for a way to single handedly load his bike into the bed. This method is pretty good. But I've always wondered if there isn't some kind of lifting wheel method still to be discovered. I picture 2 old fashioned wagon wheels with a platform, on the ground in between the wheels. You roll the bike on the platform, roll the big wheels forward toward the truck bed, and the bike comes up, slides forward, and lands in the truck just as the wagon wheels hit the tailgate. Sounds crazy but I can dream, can't I.
Awesome idea and build. I always have to find a hill or curb to back up to at the track when I load my bikes into the bed of my truck using my ramp.
Pretty cool set up , thanks
Very cool man! Seems like if you cut the front of the platform into a v shape and throw some wheels on the platform you wouldn’t need to permanently scar that absolutely beautiful truck. You’d also be able to make this idea universal to any truck with the exception of a winch. But that way the truck can still be put to work on the week days, and quickly be ready for play on her off days...
Either way... I’m super jealous about that truck
I'm working on a bolt in frame for the bed for people that don't want to drill the rivet nuts into the bed. The wheels and winch in the bed can be removed in 5 minutes. The variation in bed width between wheel wells means there still needs to be some modularity for it to fit all trucks, also working on that... Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@Grip_Addict can't wait to see you on shark tank! Good luck!
Ps. I already know the answer but....
Let me know when you're ready to sell that truck
Great job...very ingenious
How does this not have more views???
Well done brother !!
Genius. The possibilities are endless.
Well done brotherman, keep your dreams in action and CYA.
This is awesome 👍 Good work, man!
Thats nifty. I run a 7.3ps f350 cab n chassis dually and so i can load stuff i got h.f. truck bed crane and i have picked a little over 500lbs 6ft off the side. Do what ya gotta do and works
Forget the haters nice work really slick operation
Nicely done
Brilliantly simple.
Throw a coat of paint on that to make it look pretty.
The tailgate reinforcement is important. With a rig like that, every mate in the bike club will be wanting a pickup at some stage.
Love the recessed bolt threads. Lookup rivnuts. They make for quick easy remove anchor points in truck beds.
Thank you for the comments and for watching! I'm using riv nuts in the bed to bolt the removable wheels.
Necessity is the mother of skill, nice work!
Well done. I can see lots of room for improvement. Can’t wait to see version 2.0 =]
Very very well done! Visual notes taken for future reference. Thanks for posting this.
Thats so cool you made your own tilt tray. Could use it for heaps of other stuff too.
Awesome Nik, can you post a video of how you offload the bike? Thanks

This is better engineering than where I work (brick refractory)
That's awesome
Very cool my man. Well done. Wish I had done something similar years ago!
That's a great idea, nice and cheap to build. Its fast to use as well.
thats really cool. I wonder if you had a snatch block system to pull it out of the bed if you would even need the roller wheels.
Dope. You could make a crate with the same platform and be able to load a pallet of material up there.
I randomly stumbled upon this searching for some other video completely other than this but I'm glad I found it this is awesome I hope it makes it genius
Dude frickin genius level. Thank you so much
That's dope! I need to fabricate one for my flatbed I just use a winch, pallet, and ratchet straps to load things onto the bed
Awesome ! My only constructive suggestion would be to add some straps from the platform base to the handlebars. I know you have the front wheel locked in place with a cradle, but the added straps would help maintain the m-cycle upright in case you have an emergency swerve condition while driving.
Well done with the yellow tailgate support bars, left+right. Never trust the steel cable alone.
Very Nice..... Very Nice. 👍
Dude... Awesome idea 👍
Necessity, the mother of all invention. Thanks for sharing this!
sweet and you can load so much stuff on that. you need to make a business out of that . great idea
That was cool. Nice work.
Now that’s awesome. Wanna build one to get my Spyder on my truck.
Unloading probably doesn't need any engineeing. Those rollers will make it relatively easy to pull the platform backwards as the winch cable is let out. I could use a smaller version to load cargo through the side or back door of my van.

Excellent idea and implementation. Thanks for sharing. That was very creative.
UA-cam needs j heart button cause I didn’t just like this video I love this video. Gave me an idea for a dumpster for a utility trailer
Good idea and design.
If you wanted to you could
run the wench cable through
a block and tackle and a snatch
block for loading heavier loads
like mulch, dirt, or gravel with a
bolt on dump container.
I mean, if you wanted too.
Fantastic job - thanks for showing us this. So many applications beyond just bikes!
Awesome job!
Great Idea man... you have something there for sure.
Very cool.. would love to see how it comes down though.. how you secured the winch inside your truck

Very cool! That is no less than awesome! Simple and effective. Pure genius!
Absolutely Love it!!! Perfectly Brilliant!!! Great Work, Great Engineering
Well done sir 👌
fkn awesome piece of ingenuity! You just sparked my copy-cat instinct. I was playing around with a winch to help pull my bike up on the hitch-mounted carrier, but this is also worth my 'project powers' too
DAMN GOOD BUILD BRO.
I thought of this same idea to put a riding mower on my trailer because the cutting deck gets hung up on my ramps.but im going to use conveyor rollers on the bed of the trailer with the winch up in front of those.i was going to use a mower deck roller to guide the cable but i like your pulley better.thanks for posting this video.now i know it will work.
