I've seen people drop bikes using narrow tire width ramps... but that guy had a three foot wide ramp to go up!!!one!!eleven.
Every time I meet a new group of your friends that understand you and your weird sense of humor I'm a little more amazed that there are other people in the world like you that lived through childhood - My loving girlfriend

He Man

i rode my bike up a 2 foot wide ramp into a box truck. I wouldnt of been so scared except for the fact that i was riding straight into 2 other bikes and had to stop short very quickly.

But this guy just doenst have the balls!

More evidence the majority of cruiser riders don't know how to ride a motorcycle.

1) It looked liked he was backing up to do an Evil Kenevil Jump.
2) Ok, so it was a long ride up the ramp....you can tell the driveway was down sloped, so why didn't they pull the truck down onto the street and lower the incline of the ramp before he ruined his day like that?
3) humm here's a thought...if it were my first time doing that, I'd have put on a helmet...for obvious reasons.
4) The two people sitting in the chairs in the garage knew it was going to be interesting...they were ready for a show.

Oh yeah, they knew or at least expected that something dumb was going to happen.

I was trying to find a longer version of that vid Dave... or there's another similar one. I think it's a different one actually, same set up, but he takes the front wheel off the ramp just shy of the top with predictable results.

I don't think he would've cleared the top of the ramp anyway. My monster barely made it into a UHAUL like that without me on it. The only reason we got it in w/o any hassle was because we shoved it in really fast w/ 3 guys. I scraped exhaust at the top of the ramp taking it out.

The end is in sight! Gotta buckle down and get to work!

At least you didn't end up like this guy:

He wasn't going fast enough for momentum to help him up the ramp.  You hear the motor spin up because there isn't enough traction to push the bike up the ramp. 

Still, stupid and many ways to make it easier.  One of which is pull the front wheels of the truck up on blocks.

 [laugh] Those are all funny!  :D

What a bunch of asshats though...there are like 10 guys there. I know the bike weighs as much as a Honda Civic, but you think a few of them could have just pushed it into the truck.

What was this guys plan if he'd managed to get the bike on the ramp?  Levitate along next to it all the while still pushing?
