Motorcycle Towing
Specialized towing service designed to keep your motorcycle safe and secure during transport.
Why Motorcycles Need Specialized Towing
Motorcycles are not like cars. They have unique balance requirements, delicate components, and different weight distribution. Towing a motorcycle with standard equipment can cause scratches, tip-overs, or damage to the frame and suspension. That is why specialized motorcycle towing is so important. At TrueWay Encinitas Towing, we use equipment designed specifically for motorcycles, including wheel chocks, soft straps, and secure tie-down systems.
Our drivers are trained to handle motorcycles of all types, from sport bikes and cruisers to touring bikes and dirt bikes. We understand how to load, secure, and transport your bike without causing any damage. Whether your motorcycle broke down on the highway, you need it moved to a repair shop, or you are relocating and want professional transport, we handle every job with care and precision.
How We Safely Tow Motorcycles
We use flatbed trucks for most motorcycle towing jobs. This method keeps your bike stable and upright during transport, eliminating the risk of it falling over or getting damaged by road bumps. Our flatbed trucks are equipped with specialized motorcycle tie-down systems that secure your bike at multiple points without putting pressure on vulnerable parts like the handlebars or fairings.
Here is what our motorcycle towing process looks like:
- Arrival and assessment: Our driver arrives with a flatbed truck and assesses your motorcycle to determine the best loading method.
- Loading: We use a hydraulic lift or ramp to move your bike onto the flatbed. For bikes that cannot roll, we use a winch to pull them safely onto the platform.
- Securing: Once on the flatbed, we use soft straps and wheel chocks to keep your bike stable. We secure it at the frame and suspension points to avoid damaging any components.
- Transport: Your motorcycle stays upright and secure throughout the journey. We drive carefully to avoid sudden stops or sharp turns that could cause movement.
- Unloading: At the destination, we carefully unload your bike using the same controlled process.
This approach ensures your motorcycle arrives in the same condition it started, with no scratches, dings, or mechanical damage. Many riders in Encinitas trust us because we treat every bike as if it were our own.
When to Call for Motorcycle Towing
There are many situations where you might need motorcycle towing. Here are some of the most common:
- Mechanical breakdowns: If your bike stops running due to engine, transmission, or electrical problems, we can tow it to a repair shop.
- Flat tires: A flat tire on a motorcycle can be difficult to fix on the side of the road. We will tow your bike to a shop that can replace or repair the tire.
- Accidents: If you have been in an accident and your motorcycle is not rideable, we provide accident recovery and towing to get it to a safe location.
- Battery issues: A dead battery can leave you stranded. While we offer roadside assistance for jumpstarts, sometimes the battery needs replacement at a shop.
- Relocation: If you are moving and want to transport your motorcycle safely, we offer professional towing for local and long-distance moves.
- Storage transport: Moving your bike to or from a storage facility? We handle that too.
