Triumph Speed Triple x 2 (No. 6705982)

Motorbikes and scooters are not only worth a lot, but also not easy to protect while being shipped. Though, it turns out that the majority depends on how we do it and how much prior experience with transport we got. It is doable to ship a motorbike or a moped without hussle, no doubts about that. The way it will be secured depends on the mean of shipment. Owing to some helpful advice you will avoid any scratches, and dents that could happen when a moped or motorbike is not properly cared for.

When you are transporting the motorcycle on a trailer you will need four strapping belts to strap it down. If you use a trailer which is designed for motorcycles or scooters, it already has been equipped with the rail that stabilises the motorbike. In this situation you will need only 2 belts. It is essential to use a closed hook at the ends of the belts, rather than an open one. The closed one will not open up by accident during the transport.

It is also worth checking the sharp angles or parts that may possibly tear up the belts and make the safe transport impossible. It's also reasonable to transport a motorbike in a truck. The protection and equipment needed to keep the motorbike standing safely in one place will not differ too much from other ways mentioned before. One thing to be considered is the installation of the side pads to protect the insides of the car and other objects that might be transported with the motorcycle.

There are also platforms that attached to a truck or van, can let you transport your motorbike not occupying the entire space in the van.

Check with the shipping company if the equipment they provide will be enough to transport your motorcycle. For example, using a wooden platform for lifting your scooter and loading it in a truck could be dangerous to people providing the service or pedestrians passing by, but could also cause severe damage to your motorbike/motorcycle.
