The Ford Super Duty Trucks have a 6 3/4 foot short beds. My King Quad allways fit no problem. Assumed that the 850 would too, it was close. I use a set of wheel chocks and allways strap it down. After I had raised the tailgate I noticed how close the tail pipes came to the top edge of the tailgate.</end quote></div>

I have the same bed, and mine fit if when I first got it, but after I put the brush guards on it, it's a no go. The tail gate has to stay down in order to put it in the back of the truck. Kinds stinks, but oh well.

And don't forget the brush guards. I rode mine like 4 times before the guards and then put them on. Had the fangs pretty well scuffed after only a few rides.

 

Miamifan here is a picture with the tailgate up. What type of brush gaurd did you have?

 

I have the ATV-Guru brush guards. Best looking ones out there IMHO. It adds about five inches to the bike, and doesn't let my bed shut.

Looking at your pic though, you may be ok. My exhaust would sit inside the tail gate, and yours looks like it sits over. Depending on which guards you get, it could work. I think if I just drove the bike up on something, I could shut it, but the bed is already high enough and a pain to get in with the ramps I have.

 

How's that Monster holding up?

 

I'm enjoying looking through your pics. Gives us future XP owners some insight on the design of the bike. First time I've seen a battery mounted sideways for sure.

 

Sweeeeet looking ride!!! Always have liked the orangey color since I first saw a custom rod painted with a similar House of Colors paint.

Very nice!
