I just saw a for sale ads for Subaru Baja in classified section. I think it’s a pretty neat car/truck. I’m curious to know if it can carry a moto. I haven’t seen the car up close yet. I would imagine the main problems are weight distribution and bed length. From what I’ve read on the net, the payload is 1050 lbs. But the bed length is really short. It’s about 41” long with tailgate up. 59” with tailgate down. Modern sport bikes are around 80” long. I wonder if the moto rear wheel can make it on the tailgate. Any thought or experience?
