Ixeo 680G… Anyone got a scooter in the garage?

[andyk77]

Just wondered if anyone has had a scooter in the garage of one of these, if so what one? Any help appreciated

Be sure you have the spare payload available first

I would check what the max loading for your garage is, can it take the weight of a scooter ?

 

[andyk77]

I am only looking at max 115/125cc and allowing circa 100kg, I was more after the size wise for any that have already put one in the garage as the garage doesn’t look that big to me. I really like this motorhome but if I can’t make a scooter work with it I’ll have to consider a Rimor or something

Is the garage the same size as a Harmony 680G? If so, I saw a video online of a chap putting his small scooter in. Ill dig out if it's relevant.

I'm pretty sure the garage weight limit is 150 or 200kg, so you won't have a problem if you're mindful of other things. The garage isn't huge, so you're limited in how much other clutter you can fit in anyhoo.

If you have the spare loading consider a scooter rack.

 

[andyk77]

Yes indeed I have been looking at that option too.

Pablotti I believe the garage is the same as the harmony yes

If the height of the door is a restriction, consider removing the front wheel and temporarily replacing it with a smaller (eg wheel barrow) wheel. Might get round needing to change the MH.

You need to check the total payload of the motorhome including the individual axle weights. Even if the garage can hold 200kg it might be that the overall payload may not allow it, particularly if the maximum weight is 3500kg

Noted, the van is 3850kg a slight improvement on the 3500

We have an it680g with half garage. A scooter won’t fit in so we use a tow bar rack. We are plated at 4.8 tons though. Phil

Wow! How are you on your rear axle weight?

No problem at all with 4.8 ton Maxi chassis.

I have a 110cc Scooter in my Garage. A chinese copy of a Honda Cub , 15 yrs old and never missed a beat. Too tall to slide straight in so I have to compress the forks using turnbuckles on the stantions.
