Default Anyone know of a loading dock in Daytona?

Going to have to put the bike in the back of the pickup this year. I have access to load it from a dock. I'd rather not buy ramps.

Anyone know of a loading dock or place to unload a Harley from the back of a pickup truck?

Thanks.

Call the shop in Daytona. They may have a ramp there.

I’ve seen folks using the median/ditches on the side of the road

I think your pickup bed will be a lot lower than a typical loading dock.

you up to spending $40? go to a wrecker company with a rollback. wheel it off yours onto the rollback, then lower to the ground. should only cost $20 or $40

Back it into your truck bed so you can hit the throttle, pop the clutch and "rocket" that bad boy out of the back. Should be pretty sweet to see...

call the dealership, I bet they'll do it for you

here's what mine looked like going into the back of the truck. I took the tailgate off and left it off, a Street Glide or Road King fits just perfect in the back of my F-150.
