anyone ever see an X modded to fit a motorcycle in the rear?

[PUR PONY]

I was thinking about this the other day. I am going to be driving down to Florida again this spring break to visit my parents and I would love to take my new R1 with me.... this means I would have to drive the pickup down.
I really want to take my X so I have to decide....

X or the pickup and the bike.

But anyways... I was thinking... it would be pretty cool to ditch the spare tire and cut a strip out of the back of an X and weld in a drop channel floor which would allow a sport bike to roll right up inside an X..... I think that would be insane and a pretty cool idea for car shows. Pull in with a done up X and pop the rear hatch to "show your stereo or something...." but instead roll a bike out.

any thoughts on this?? Dumb idea? good idea? interesting idea? lol
Has anyone ever seen this done?

uhmm interesting but it would take alot of work. the rear axle will probably be in the way as well as many other parts. it would be pretty cool if you could pull that off.

on a side note did you look into getting a hitch mounted motorcycle carrier

something like this

i like the idea but probibly not enough foom for the axel. But that would be cool then for where the front tire goes put 2 buckets in the rear so theres room in the middle. It could be dont but ALOT of owrk would be involved.

reminds me of the Monster Garage where they made a Tundra with a lift away door and a platform for a motorcycle to ride out of... ever see that one? the Terminator Tundra I believe it was...

yup saw it. Kinda disapointing how all that BRAND NEW STUFF gets ripped out and thrown away!!!!

No- never saw that monster garage one.

This was just something I thought up quick and never thought about the rear axle. I dont think that would be a really big issue though. you could have a removable area that is raised to allow room for the axle when the truck is moving... but remove the small piece to roll the bike out..... I think the hardest part would be keeping the back seats... unless you went with 2 seperate buckets with an openning in between.

like I said though it was just a quick day dream I was having. Would be sweet as hell and doable but will never be done by me- lol
