Motocykl Triumph Tiger 1200

Motorcycles and scooters are not only worth a lot, but also hard to protect when transported. Although, it turns out that everything depends on the way we do it and how much prior experience with transport we gained. It is feasible to transport a motorcycle or a moped without obstacles, undoubtedly. The way it will be secured depends on the type of transportation. Owing to some helpful advice you could prevent any scratches, and dents that could happen if a moped or motorcycle is not properly cared for.

When you are shipping your motorcycle using a trailer you will need 4 belts to strap it down. If you use a trailer that is dedicated for motorbikes or scooters, it already is equipped with the rail that stabilises the motorbike. In this case you will need only 2 strapping belts. It is crucial to use a closed hook at the ends of the belts, rather than an open one. The closed one will not open up accidentaly during the shipment.

It is also worth checking the sharp angles or items that may possibly tear up the belts and hinder your efforts. It's also feasible to transport a motorbike inside a truck. The protection and equipment required to keep the motorbike resting safely in one place will not differ too much from other methods mentioned before. One thing that should be taken under consideration will be installing the side pads to secure the insides of the van and other objects that will accompany the motorcycle.

There are also platforms that hooked to a car or van, can let you transport your motorbike not occupying the whole space in the van.

Check with the transport company if the equipment they provide will be sufficient to carry your motorbike. For instance, using a wooden stand for lifting your motorbike and loading it in a van could pose danger to people providing the service or pedestrians passing by, but could also cause substantial damage to your motorbike/motorcycle.
