What's the largest item you have strapped to your bike?

[bergmen]

Not me but my Dad. When we lived in North Hollywood back in the 50's my Dad was putting together his ham radio station. The antenna he had acquired needed a mast on top of the garage. He ended up finding a steel flagpole which was at least 20 feet long (could have been longer). We had no pickup truck or any other way to get it home so my Dad used his 1947 Harley with a utility sidecar to bring it home. It was strapped between the bike and the sidecar and I remember to this day my Dad carefully pulling into the driveway with this monstrosity.

I moved a clothes dryer across town on my '79 xs750 as it wouldn't fit in my 'Cuda. The hardest part was getting that first bungee cord on to stabilize it so I could attach the rest (I had no help). Would have been a good time for a camera.

Patch and I used to strap bales of hay to the back of our little Hodaka 50. It was way easier than a wheelbarrow or just dragging them. Our horses were spread out in fields. The farthest was about a half mile away.

Actually, I had to not only secure her to the bike, but also to me, as she kept tipping sideways.

The fun part was when I rode up the concrete steps to the female dorm, 'cause I didn't want to sling her over my shoulder.

Parking was out of the question. I just wanted to get the hell outta there!

Not me, but a guy I know took his car's transmission to a shop…on his Honda Grom

I have carried large bags of dog food, charcoal and cases of beer; but Renojohn's keg really is outrageous. I'll have to try it, but I'm a bit worried about the subframe.
Was the keg full?

Yes, but it was light beer....(buh dump bump)
