Thank for the info. The biggest problem is getting the tires onto the
rails-wider rails would make this a bunch easier.

Just strap the rear tire down to the rail. Been tote-in bikes for many,
many
miles, with a 4" rail and never had a problem. A lil' bike like the xr350
should be no prob. Just be sure and tie a reel good knot.

ps: Its a good idea to tie the front tire too!
