harder wood flooring that looks a bit smarter

[andy banes]

hi i use my swb t6 as a van and transport heavy ish motorbikes in the back they sit in their stands. i currently have a ply lined floor is there something a bit prettier perhaps in black thats as hard wearing maybe even cut to shape for a swb?

 

[Deaky]

Altro?

Pardon our interruption...

 

[andy banes]

isnt that like lino? im concerned the weight of the bikes and the metal stands would mishaps or press into the floor.

 

[Deaky]

Altro is commercial grade PVC floor covering, it's a lot harder wearing than lino. TBH, I'd think a motorbike stand will press into anything, you could fit a metal plate to the floor where the stand contacts?

expensive?

 

[Martin Gibson]

Yes and they are quite thick,soft and spongy,not ideal for what you are trying to do. @Deaky 's Altro idea is way cheaper and much harder wearing than the standard kombi flooring

So the altro would be better than just the ply?

 

[Martin Gibson]

It would definitely look a lot better,what sort of stands do the bikes sit in?

Normal Ducati rear stand

I use the rubber floor and a ducati rear stand ok. Yes it leaves a print which comes out after a day or so, nothing permanant. I never use the side stand for the fear it will rip the rubber floor.

Im pretty sure that if the stands work fine with the rubber floor then an altro would be fine
