Has anyone used this with a dirt bike on the back of a Class A? I'm curious if the handlebars will clear the mh... Thanks.

I use this ramp with my scooter/Vespa on the back of my Class A MH. The mirrors are 28 inches apart and clear. The only problem I have had is the ramp is to short and the bike bottoms out. But being as you are using it for a dirt bike you have more clearance. I also added two eye bolts in the existing holes to make it easier to strap bike down. Hopefully this helps.

Wish I could help. Purchased it for my Vespa Piaggio and it is too small to hold it. I did see a dirk bike this weekend on the back of a truck using the same mount.

I haul my 650 Kawasaki KLR on the back of my half ton Chevy pickup truck with a topper and it works out great. The handle bars clear the rear window glass of the topper which is flush with the tailgate.

My bike is a mountain bike with a sloped spine, and the bike is slanted, but still works fine. Others have talked about the adapter bar working just fine for them, but I haven't needed it and don't use one, so I can't tell you from personal experience. Sorry.

I use it on my bike (Cannondale T800) which has drop handlebars. It's a bit of a squeeze and it does bump the cables when I take it on and off, but it works for me.

I was limited for space on my 60" wall, so I hung four brackets 12" apart and like you're planning, alternated them between high and low. I own four 26" Specialized mountain bikes with standard length handlebars. To make them fit, I inverted (faced downwards) the lower bracketed bikes and kept the upper bracketed bikes facing upwards. The clearance between the handlebars is 1-2". The reason I hang it that way is so I can take any bike out without having it interfere with the others. Hope this helps.

I use a large MTB (6'1"), this didn't work for me on the back wheel. So I couldn't use it with a trainer.It's not listed anywhere but in the manual. 70cm or 27" is the farthest away. My back wheel to handlebars is 35" at the closest I could put the sensor. Tested by holding the computer while riding...sure enough ~25" is all I got out of it.

Depends on the bike. Sport bikes no, but cruisers maybe. I have a CBR600rr and I have to settle for locking the back wheel to a post.

The adjustment on the handlebar height is very limited. They can move a large amount front to back but not up and down. Hope this helps.

Actually, I swapped out a set of mountain bike handlebars for this unit. To answer your question, if the stem of the gooseneck is fully inserted into the frame column, it probably won't be an issue. Because I wanted a higher profile, I raised my gooseneck an inch or two - which made the right brake cable a bit tight on right turns. To compensate, I made a quick fix by taking my finger and just looping the brake cable to the right side of the gooseneck. The other shift and left brake cables didn't require any compensation at all - worked just fine.

Joy, I gambled on the large based on my grip and they work great. The diameter of the handle bar was not an issue as they just slip on and bolt tight to hold in place. The gear lever just butted up against the inside of the grip so no issues there. It took some adjusting on the gear levers and grips to get them just right but after a few test rides I got them where they were comfortable. Hope this helps.

I use it with a large mountain bike, and the resistance selector cable isn't long enough to reach the handlebars where it is intended to mount.

I have them on mine, I used them along with a rough country BB lift. It raised the rear end up so it did not look as saggy with the BB. It does ride a bit more firm but if I had to, I would do it again.

I would strongly suggest it. Initially I tried without one and I felt like I was falling over the handlebars. Plus it seemed to put a lot of stress on the front tire. I bought the riser the next day.

Hi! Sorry I couldn't answer earlier. I hope you tried the device in the meantime. The product works fine, especially with the bracket we attached to it to make it easier for our son to load his dirt bike onto it himself. You have to strap down the bike really well. We're not sure what Amazon means by the 'anti tilt locking device', but in our experience there is no tilting involved indeed and off-roading that happens when our son takes the bike to the spots where he wants to ride are testament to that. I hope this helps. Good luck!

Hey I don't ride a NC700x but I ride an 08 Yamaha FZ6 and it does fine with my exhaust pipe being right next to the bags because it comes under the seat. So my bags somewhat sit on the pipes. But looking at a picture of your bike I know that your set up would be more preferable. I would give it an eye ball measurements that if you have at least a foot 1/2 or so between the bottom of your back seat to the exhaust then you should be good and like I said my bags sit touching the exhaust and I've had yet to have an issues. Also I have an extra set of these bags in gray with all accessories I'm thinking about getting rid of because I order one set but got one as a gift. If interested rodney4hk@yahoo.com. I love these bags the only thing for my Fz6 my turn signal lights are slightly in the way for if I wanted to open the zipper on the bottom for more space and that may be the case with your bike as well as far as the exhaust being in your way if you needed to make extra space in your bags. I think they work great being a college student it really helps me going shopping since I don't have a car.

This bike is by no means a mountain bike but for the price is a very good folding bike. I have had two folders and Hasa is almost as good as the $450 dahon I have (after Hasa was stolen). I think it would do fine on dirt/fire roads but anything too bumpy would be tough on the bike and rider. If you are new to biking and do not plan on doing anything too crazy I would be willing to bet the bike would be fine on any dirt road you would feel comfortable on. I hope this helps.

Not so sure about dirt roads, but the bike is poorly built. The bolts and machined parts do not properly fit, steer clear of this bike......

Hi,The Ridgeback will come with a nylon strap that you can definitely use to secure the wheels of the bike so that the handlebars will not be swinging or spinning.Thanks,Rack Attack
