Anyone haul a Rocket in a 5th wheel toy hauler?

eh?

Rebel has his flag on the back of his ride ;-)
 
****, R3Tex, that's some weight in the back! No problems with the floor or weight distribution? With only one Rocket in back would you still have it loaded sideways?

I only load sideways when I put a bike and my razor in at the same time. My toy hauler is a 45' tri-axle 5th wheel with an 18' garage. Best I remember its rated for 2800 lbs of cargo so no issue with weight or floor

Thanks for the info R3Tex. That's a monster toy hauler! What do you pull it with?
 
Hey Pegasus,
I have a Heartland Torque 290 ToyHauler that we carry our Yamaha Vmax in when we go camping. Just bought a R3 today and it will be in the Torque garage bay next trip for sure. I have always used a roll on wheel chock and ratcheted tie-downs to the floor with no issues. The bike is as far forward as space will allow in the garage. The trick is to have a good space to load and unload when you get to the campground. Sometimes we score a good pull thru site or we will unload the bike prior to backing the camper in a traditional site. If you have a weight distribution hitch for your camper, you shouldn't have much of an issue with the setup. Once you get the hitch setup like you want it, just load the camper the same way every time you go. It will just become routine unless you use a different tow vehicle on occasion. Good luck!

Thanks Chris! Let me know how you like the Rocket and how its maiden camping trip goes. Is your Toyhauler a 5th wheel or a trailer?
