Hyundai Entourage/Kia Sedona.  I bought it when the twins were born.  I have had two Grisos and a T-3 in it.  Not at the same time tho...

Beautiful pair of bikes there!   I'd be proud to own either of them.

If you had a pickup you'd be able to keep the mirrors AND the seat on.....  :boozing:

 I love the laundry basket in the van...that's awesome. I've transported 4 bikes in my mini-van...it works great....and like I said in another post you get to talk to the bike all the way home.

The mirrors and spare tools went in the laundry basket.  The seller helped me hoist it in but I had to pull it out by myself and it was a bit of a struggle.  Parking on an incline next time.

I'm surprised the you didn't have to drop the bars and speedo...did you try putting it in rear first?....it made it a lot easier to get the bikes out for me....

oh btw....what a beautiful bike...congrats...i t won't be long until junior is taking off on it.

One inch of clearance at the top of the speedo

did you try putting it in rear first?...

Not enough space for MY rear in that configuration

...it made it a lot easier to get the bikes out for me....

The slight incline made a big difference.  I huffed and I puffed

He had a '73 but outgrew it
