Whether you need a rental motorcycle platform or want to use a professional motorcycle transport service in Brașov, it’s important to understand what safe transport entails. Incorrect securing, an unstable ramp, or even a brake applied the wrong way can lead to serious damage.
From our experience, we offer the most useful tips to help you avoid problems.
1. Don’t transport the motorcycle without a solid ramp
Many try to load their motorcycle into a van or onto a platform using boards, pallets, or makeshift ramps. This is extremely dangerous! Use only:
-
A folding metal ramp
-
Or a rental motorcycle platform with an integrated ramp and non-slip surface
2. Don’t lift the bike alone
Even a 200 kg motorcycle becomes unstable on a ramp. We recommend:
-
Having a second person with you
-
Whenever possible, try to push the motorcycle up with the engine running, in first gear, at low revs
If you are in an emergency, you can always call motorcycle towing services in Brașov – safe, fast, and effortless for you.
3. Don’t tie the motorcycle by the handlebars!
This is a common mistake. Handlebars are not designed to withstand the tension forces from straps.
Secure the motorcycle as follows:
-
Front: straps on the lower triple clamp or crash bar, if available, NOT the handlebars
-
Rear: attach to the frame or swingarm
-
Slightly compress the suspension, but not fully
📌 Bonus tip: Make sure all straps are evenly tensioned and do not touch the wheels or exhaust.
4. Don’t lock the front or rear brake
It may seem logical to apply the brake for “safety,” but this can unnecessarily stress the braking system during transport. Leave the wheels free – the motorcycle is held by the straps, not the brakes!
5. Check the motorcycle after 10–15 km
Straps can loosen in the first few minutes of travel. Stop and:
-
Re-tension them if necessary
-
Check all attachments, the bike’s position, and the direction of the straps
This is an essential rule for trouble-free transport.
6. When choosing a motorcycle platform, what should you look for?
