PAK-RAK III

With a PAK-RAK(tm) your ride can start exactly where you would like with no concern about having assistance to load your bike.

The RAK is mechanically simple and rugged, powered by a sturdy 12 volt winch motor. Truck installation is simple and straight forward, and the RAK can be quickly removed from truckbed. This type of one person loader has not previously been available. For the individual who would like the freedom to be able to LOAD and GO, the RAK is an answer. From experience, we can guarantee that the PAK-RAK(tm) will extend the opportunities to enjoy the sport of motorcycling.

CONSTRUCTION: The RAK is constructed of heavy gauge steel, and is composed of four major sections.

  1. RAIL - stabilizes and carries the bike.
  2. TRACK - articulates the rail down to ground level.
  3. POWER-PAK - contains the 12 volt motor. Also serves as forward mount plate in truck.
  4. REAR MOUNT PLATE

OPERATION: The RAK works as follows:

From the up-stowed position, when the OUT switch is depressed, the RAIL will move rearward as the TRACK pivots to approximately a 30 degree angle. The RAIL continues rearward until the rear wheels of RAIL are on ground. The TRACK then rotates to a near vertical position which allows the front of the RAIL to move down to ground level.

LOAD-UP:

The operator drives bike onto the rail. The front tire slips into the adjustable front wheel clamp. The operator slips the RAK-STRUTS onto the grips. The Struts are positioned by operator prior to drive-on, so they are ready to be slipped onto grips. With the Struts in place on the handgrips the bike is stable, operator can dismount. (Bike will be in first gear, however, the wheel scenter prevents bike from rolling rearward even if bike is in neutral.)
NOTE: The average height person with a touring bike will place booster boards alongside RAIL to insure that operator will have his feet flat on the deck during drive-on (and off). The boosters are just 4 ft long 2x12 boards. Legs for boards are included with RAK. A 1.5" diameter hole placed in boards will provide a stand to hold the struts in position prior to drive-on.

Not shown is the installation of the Rear Wheel Clamp. This Clamp is positioned behind the rear wheel and snugged to tire. This adjustable clamp accommodates various tire sizes and differing wheel bases.

The remote control switch for the RAK allows the operator to control the loader with left hand, keeping right hand on bike for security. During the loading sequence, the TRACK section pivots forward to approximately a 30 degree angle. The RAIL with bike moves forward, telescoping into track then pivoting onto truckbed. The unit then continues forward into bed to its final position.

After bike is loaded, the RAK-Struts are placed in position into provided Strut-Pockets. Using the RAK-Struts as part of tie-down allows bike to be restrained WITHOUT compressing the bike forks. Two tie-down straps per side are used along with Struts to firmly support bike during transport.
