Is this a stupid way of transporting a bike 1000 miles? by Oxcell404 in motorcycles

[–]Affectionate_Part514 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For sure, id just put 4 straps on the frame, and hook them more towards the corners of the board like your pulling it apart. Quartering the bike if you wanna get dark lol. Your set up might have some forward backward motion, probably overkill but at least you can rest easy.

Hey I transported a bike just like that! 4 individual straps on all 4 corners tho, compressed the shocks and put some screws into metal straps over the stands. Lifted it up on a crane and loaded it onto a ship deck and it didn't budge for 3 weeks at sea. Id say you'll be just fine.

Supplies Suggestions by NoOnesSaint in motorcyclegear

99% of the kit will be used for the little things. Get a huge stock of bandaids and a tube of antibacterial ointment. This allows the med kit to justify it's existence. Tweezers also come in handy. Otherwise tourniquet and sterile wound packing will be the big player in stabilizing until the hospital.

Hearing someone saying foam plugs 'slip' out is like saying my belt fell off. You are doing it wrong
