Transporting The Motorcycle

If you must transport the motorcycle, use a truck or

trailer. Do not tow the motorcycle with another

vehicle, as towing will impair the motorcycle’s

steering and handling, which can cause loss of

control.
• Position and restrain the motorcycle so it remains

upright on the truck or trailer, as gasoline may

leak out of the fuel tank if the motorcycle leans to

one side. Gasoline is a fire hazard and it can also

damage the motorcycle’s finish.

• Do not restrain the motorcycle using the

handlebars. In front, hook the tiedowns in the

loop provided in the bottom of the frame. Place

tie-downs as wide apart as possible on the truck

or trailer bed for best stability. Secure the

motorcycle as shown at right.

To loop on frame.
