I've never had to trailer my bike and next week will be the first time. I'm leaving the bike in New Orleans and flying back to Los Angeles. Shipping Masters will be transporting the bike back to Los Angeles.
Can anyone share insight as to what appropriate tie down locations are? Advice seems to be all over the place, but I do think that it makes sense not to tie down at bars as they will rotate given the weight of the bike/tension.
I think the rest of the stuff is fairly standard:
- Use wheel chock
- Partially compress suspension
- Bike not on sidestand
- Pray nothing happens
Any other insight? I just want to make sure I leave clear instructions as to how to tie her down.
Thanks!!
