? for those that haul an MX bike in their Tundra
I am picking up a bike on Saturday.....I am almost positive that the bike (97 YZ 250) won't fit into the bed perfectly straight with the tailgate closed. (Also, I don't want to bend the front rail on the bed)
Given this, I was planning on putting the front wheel of the bike in the front passenger side corner of the bed. With the bike in diagonally (sp?) I think I can get the tailgate closed. Then I would use my tie downs from the bike to the two opposite corner hooks (Driver Side Front & Passenger Side Rear).
Have any of you done this? Any problems? Also, what is the best place to attache the tie downs to the bike in this positoin. I was thinking one on each side of the handle bars.
Thanks.
