DJohns Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 I am looking into loading my Harley ultra onto the bed of my Volvo. I have seen several brands on the web. I have kind of decided on a cable loading system as apposed to the drive on ramp system. I like the mountain master loader but can not find anyone that uses this brand. Any comments or recommendations! 2002 Beaver Marquis Emerald C-12 Cat 505 HP 2014 Volvo 630 D-13 I Shift SOLD 2017 New Horizons SOLD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Av8r3400 Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 http://www.mountainmaster.net/motorcycleloadingsystem.html Is this the one you are considering? I wouldn't see the need for the added expense of an aluminum unit. The weight savings won't mean much on an HDT.

chooseopen Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 The previous owner of my truck installed the Blue Ox Motorcycle Loader on my truck. This thing is a BEAST! Mine doesn't look very pretty after being exposed to the elements though. I would entertain selling it since I don't own a motorcycle...if you are interested in a little project I bet it would cleanup pretty nicely. Here is the Blue Ox on my truck with the ramps stowed up on the deck. https://photos.app.goo.gl/ilZF6NBXsG0wmTGi2 2007 Volvo VNL670, Singled, Air ride hitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottiedot Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 I have a Rampage on my Freightliner FLD120, it loads my Road Glide effortlessly. They make them in two lengths, I need the longer unit because of the frame height but I found a new one on eBay for a good price. The only negative is it is just about 105” long, but Smarts are over length as well and don’t seem to be an issue. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I’ll upload some photos when I get to a pc so I can resize them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJohns Posted February 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 Thanks for the replies. I am looking at the MM brand because they have a deck to drive the bike on which keeps the incline not so severe as the top of my bed is 50 inches. The rampage says 39 inch height and just looks like when the bike starts to go horizontal there is some serious pull when pulling a 800 pound bike. Has anyone ever seen or had a MM brand loader? 2002 Beaver Marquis Emerald C-12 Cat 505 HP 2014 Volvo 630 D-13 I Shift SOLD 2017 New Horizons SOLD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
