Default Class B that holds a motorcycle

Ok. I’m trying to find a class b that can hold my motorcycle Cruiser.

This will be my first class b & I don’t want to leave home with out my bike. Do they make a van that can hold a motorcycle?

By cruiser, I'm assuming something around 7-900 lbs.

You're pretty much stuck with a max weight of 400lbs (I think??) for hanging one outside.

For inside transport you would need a custom build. There would not be very much room in the van if you carry a bike in there.

I travel with a motorcycle in a cargo trailer behind a 2000 200 Versatile Roadtrek(no back door). It works quite well. I also have room for the safety gear,gravity chair, tools, spare parts, tires and misc. I usually wear out two rears and one front tire on my extended trips. Carrying back up tires saves quite a bit of hassle and $$.

It costs about 2 mpg to pull the trailer, well worth it for the fun that the motorcycle provides.

I agree. A trailer is the way to go. Easier to load and you have full use of the van when traveling. Could be anything from a small, open trailer to a larger enclosed trailer.
