Moto Rack

Post by deLOOKA »

My buddy (unfortunatelly injured) lent me his KTM 300 for the rest of the season.
I just go to his home (Langley) when I want to borrow it.
So this is what our Deli looks like with a 250lb bike + 50lb rack.
Shot is at Vedder Mtn, Chilliwack.

Dirt bike and rack approx 310lb (dirt/gas). It does sag a bit when on level ground.
In this picture I was parked on a slight slope.

My bike rack + 4 DH bikes weigh approx. 260lb. There is almost no sag. Yes, bike rack weighs 100lb.

If I was to dirt bike on a regular basis would most likely do what Falco did and have work done to the leaf springs.

I'd just throw in some airbags, even used would work.

perfect! I've dreamed of a setup like this since before even getting a delica 4 years ago :)

Now all I need is a good hitch install, the rack, and a KTM dirtbike :-D (my dualsport weighs around 500lbs)

Forgot the l300's are springs.. Not sure if you can get airbags for that but I suspect so.

I don't have a deli but are these Deli's a solid axle in the back? If so a universal bag system mounted between the axle and a good mounting point if available would work jsut fine.
If not you could try and look into a bag over spring setup, It would have to be custom mounts but its do able. Just gotta find the bags to fit! :-D
Good luck and Get R DUN!

Both Firestone and Air Lift have applications for mitsu pick ups. They should be very similar to Delica's.
