Tri-Folds and Motorcycles

I’m going to try to bring this thread back to life here, any of you moto guys still lurking around these parts? I just bought a 2017 Tundra crewmax and it’s going to be my main bike hauler. It has a bakflip f1 installed currently, and when I tried to load my bike (2012.5 KTM 450SXF) the front tire hits the cover before it contacts the front wall of the bed…




theres a good 2” gap between tire and bed there. The last portion of the tonneau cover that’s bearing the weight of the tire is pretty stout, and seems secure… but it just kind of sketches me out a bit. Plus I’m not stoked on how I have to drive around with that thing folded against the back window of the truck…

I’m wondering if anybody has run into this problem, or what you might’ve done to correct it? I thought about adding some sort of bar or bracket to keep the tire off the tonneau cover…

 

buy a motorcycle chalk and and mount it to a board.

 

Oh… yeah. That’s a great idea. Harbor freight here I come
