What length of ramp should I purchase to load my motorcycle?

Recommended motorcycle ramp lengths based on the tailgate height of your truck for stock motorcycles
(These recommendations are based on a motorcycle with 64" wheelbase and 5.5" of ground clearance). If your motorcycle is longer than this or lower, please call for assistance.

Tailgate Maximum Height	Motorcycle Wheelbase*	Motorcycle Ground Clearance*	Ramp Length
30"	64"	5.5"	89" long
34"	64"	5.5"	94" long
36"	64"	5.5"	108" long
39"	64"	5.5"	120" long

*Ground clearance is determined by measuring the lowest point of the motorcycle 1/2 way between the front and rear wheels (normally under the engine)
*Wheelbase is determined by measuring from the center of the front wheel to the center of the rear wheel
