Will an R6 fit in Transit Connect?
 

Hi,

Taking my race bike (09 R6) to a track day on the 28th my mate has offered to borrow me his van see below.

Will an R6 fit in this ? I said to him i dont think it will and he seems to think it will.

Any help?!?!?

Find a plank of wood. Try it out. Failing that, measure the length, height and width of the bike and do the same for the van's interior space. If the measurements of the bike exceed the measurements of the van, get a bigger van.

Remember to measure the van from the corners.

It doesn't look like it will fit from the picture. But you never know, he may be a time lord.

This document lists the length of the cargo area as 1.739m and the width (between wheels) of 1.226m for a diagonal of 2.12m. Wikipedia lists the length of the R6 as 2.04m. The height of the door is 1.145m and wikipedia lists the height of the R6 as 1.1m.

Theoretically it might fit though you'll only have 4-6cm to play with in any direction which you might find isn't quite enough to actually manoeuvre it in.

I've got a transit connect, standard roof, my lambretta was a tight fit corner to corner, so I doubt a big bike will even come close, they are only about 1200mm in height internally, cos i struggle with boards.

I managed to get my gsx-r in one with a lot of ratchet straps holding the bike in place and the doors open but pulled shut with another strap..
