A pocket bike might fit.

I have fit a bicycle in the back but I had to put down the 2nd row. It would be a stretch to put a motorcycle in the back, but depending on its size it may be possible, go find a disco and measure. That will be a better answer than any of us can give.

The best option may be a motorcycle carrier which fits into the trailer hitch mount.

I bet you could get a 100 back there, but after 125 motorcycles are pretty tall because of the suspension. I'm assuming here you mean an off-road motorcycle. I would get that carrier that Switzer suggested.

If he has a track bike it might be short enough. Disco's are tall.
