    Skis + poles and my mountain bike plus luggage - all tied to my old GN250 when riding up to National Park for a weekend of fun. This is back in 92-93. I used to leave Palmerston North after work, pretty late after I managed to secure everything and get up to the mountain close to midnight. Them were cold rides! Wouldn't do it now though, not as adventurous as I used to be and I don't think you could get away with it. Wish I had taken some pics but I don't think I had a camera back then anyhow and while I'm thinking about it, you couldn't get cellphones with cameras then either - wasn't that long ago really - oh wait, I guess that's 20 years nearly...

    A set of tyres (several times), an entire computer system (monitor, tower, keyboard, mouse, surge protector, modem etc), also, a paddock stand. Since it didn't fold it was an awkward object, strapped over my backpack.

    A full metal tool chest weighing in excess of 25kg was one of the heavier ones.

    No real limit to what I will attempt. Nothing has fallen off or broken yet

    Wife and friend standed themselve by running out of deisel in the horse truck. I strapped a 20l drum of deisel on the back of my FZR and rode (really carefully) for 80kms to rescue them

    As a 10 year old, Pallets on an RM80, tied the center of the pallets to my seat (2 at a time), clicked it in gear, then hopped on the pallets and rode away in 1st. Was only along the "frontages" from the farmer down the road back to my tree hut in the back paddock.

    I then tied a rope from my bike, over a branch then to the pallet, and rode away from the tree to lift the pallet up to the hut platform, genius I thought.

    Excluding the male, I've had this roll of 100mph tape for 3 years and look how fucking brilliant it is. Just two lengths for the speakers, rock goddamn solid.

    ...I remember a pizza in a box being shoved into my jacket on a cold day and taking it home...about twenty minutes away...it was nice and warm...I didnt realise that the cheese had run out of the box and had reformed as a protective armour around my nuts...pulled a lot of hair trying to de-cheese myself...pizza wasn't half as nice either...

    Kudos. My best was 2 pillions & 2 crates of Newcastle Brown with an XT 350 underneath.
    I did get a mate to strap a king size mattress to the roof of his mini. We could only see out when the car bounced, hilarious.

    Splitting down Papinui Road in rush hour traffic got me a few weird looks, especially in Merivale.
