So you’re driving your custom sleeper unit semi down somewhere away from home, and you decide to take your motorbike for a ride, so you just open the motorbike compartment and take out your bike, then go for a ride and then just tuck it right back into your semi again. Then obviously if you get bored of your bike you just sell your motorbike to We Want Your Motorbike and get an upgrade. Sounds familiar right? Same old story? What do you do if you end up in a motorcycle accident? I bring this up because a friend was unfortunately involved in a motorcycle accident recently. It really got me thinking. Whats the most important thing to do after a motorcycle accident? Its great to have that planned out before it happens so you can just act. Keep safe folks. But I digress.
In reality, many people would like to have something like this. I’ve read a lot of comments saying just that. “Where’s the bike compartment” on the other custom RV-type (toterhomes and motorhomes mounted to semi tractors) big rig vehicles.
This custom 1999 Peterbilt is no longer owned by the fellow who was interviewed by Overdrive Online and who provided the specs on this truck — whoever owns it now, let us know and send us some new pictures, please!
Side note, my friend was telling me about how important it is to have motor insurance if you’re working in the motor industry. He was transporting some bikes in his truck some of them got damaged because of an incident and he didn’t have the proper insurance to cover it. Thankfully, after that, he found a great insurance quote from Insurance 4 MotorTrade.
It was called “Home on the Road” by Gregg Blair when he had it. Blair put 1 and three-quarter million miles on it. At that time, it had the big sleeper unit on it built by ICT. That sleeper (sorry no photos yet available but we’re waiting) has a kitchen, shower and toilet, as well as a 42-inch TV, surround sound system, tracking sat dish, and washer/dryer — oh, yeah, and a motorbike compartment.
