● Check that the fuel cock (if
equipped) is in the “OFF” position
and that there are no fuel leaks.
● Point the front wheel straight
ahead on the trailer or in the truck
bed, and choke it in a rail to pre- 2
vent movement.
● Shift the transmission in gear (for
models with a manual transmis-
sion).
● Secure the motorcycle with tie-
downs or suitable straps that are
attached to solid parts of the mo-
torcycle, such as the frame or up-
per front fork triple clamp (and not,
for example, to rubber-mounted
handlebars or turn signals, or parts
that could break). Choose the lo-
cation for the straps carefully so
the straps will not rub against
painted surfaces during transport.
● The suspension should be com-
pressed somewhat by the tie-
downs, if possible, so that the mo-
torcycle will not bounce excessive-
ly during transport.
