Can you fit a motocross bike in a caddy?

Post by Kieranwebb »

I've just bought my first caddy and was wondering if my crf450 will fit in the back without having to remove anything ( front wheel, drop bars)
Thanks

If you have your bulkhead removed it should fit with the passenger seat slided forward seen a few pic of bikes in like that and fit okay. Should just get it in tight hight wise.
Dont think it would fit with a bulkhead but may be wrong, just going with what ive seen.

That's cool I don't the bulkhead in at the moment but I was thinking of refitting it to try and keep all my tools and work gear in the back and stop mud getting into the front. I measured height wise and it looks a squeeze ha. Good to know it will fit if needed. Cheers

A mate of mine has a crf 250 and his bike fits in with the bulkhead fitted.all he does is loosens the handlebars and drops them down. When I seen this I bought a caddy myself and I ride a ktm150. Hope this helps

Yep!! crf 450 goes in with passenger side of bulkhead taken out, u can either slacken bars n drop em or I use bar straps hooked onto bottom of forks to pull sussy down a bit. Goes in back words no probs !!!

That was my main concern before I decided on getting a caddy. My montesa 4rt trials bike fits in no bother, and my sv650 race bike fits in with the bulkhead removed and a bit of maneuvering no need to move the seat forward much. Best thing is if ya can nab a mate or someone you know with one and try it

I always thought an mx bike would be too tall but it's good to know they can fit, I have a maxi and my Ducati 853 and my R1 fit just fine but not tried an mx bike yet

Get a good run at it and I'm sure it'll fit right in. More speed! :lol:
