How do I properly tie down a motorcycle

Tying down a motorcycle is an important part of transporting it safely. By following these steps, you can ensure that your motorcycle arrives at its destination in one piece.

Use the right tie-downs. Not all tie-downs are created equal. You'll need to choose tie-downs that are specifically designed for motorcycles. These tie-downs will have a soft loop that goes around the motorcycle's frame, and a hook that attaches to the trailer or truck bed.
Place the tie-downs in the right spots. The front tie-downs should be placed at the front of the motorcycle, just below the handlebars. The rear tie-downs should be placed at the rear of the motorcycle, just behind the passenger seat.
Tighten the tie-downs. Once the tie-downs are in place, you need to tighten them until the motorcycle is secure. Be sure to check the tension of the tie-downs regularly, and tighten them as needed.
Use a wheel chock. In addition to tie-downs, you should also use a wheel chock to prevent the motorcycle from rolling. The wheel chock should be placed in front of the front wheel.
