The invention is generally directed to a motorcycle rack for a pickup truck. The motorcycle rack includes a frame with a long, narrow slot for receipt of a generally horizontal tongue of a curved wheel wedge. The frame is removably installed in the truck bed by anchoring fasteners on opposing sides of the frame to provide proper fit in the truck bed. The slot has a plurality of spaced apertures to allow for optional positioning of the wheel wedge. The tongue of the wheel wedge is slidably secured within the slot to distribute the weight of the motorcycle laterally across the width of the truck bed. The tire of the motorcycle is held by the wheel wedge, and can be secured by strap(s) and clip(s) attached to the motorcycle rack.
