Motorcycle Towing

Careful motorcycle towing that protects your bike, whether it broke down on I-385 or needs a lift after a crash.

About this service

A motorcycle is not a car, and it should never be towed like one. A standard hook-and-chain or a poorly rigged flatbed can scratch fairings, snap kickstands, or shift a bike enough to drop it mid-tow. Our motorcycle towing service uses proper wheel chocks and soft-tie restraints on a flatbed built for two wheels, whether you broke down along I-385, got caught out on a weekend ride through the Golden Strip, or need a bike moved after a wreck.

Every motorcycle call starts with the same question: can it still roll, or does it need to be lifted. That determines how the bike gets onto the flatbed and what equipment the operator uses once it is there. Either way, the bike goes on with a wheel chock holding the front wheel upright and soft-tie straps at the frame, never a hook or chain that could scratch a fairing or bend a lever. We handle sport bikes, cruisers, and touring bikes the same careful way, whether the call is a simple breakdown or a bike that needs to be moved after a crash.

A motorcycle's balance point is the whole game once it is on the ramp. Load it too fast or chock it wrong and the bike can shift or tip before the straps are even set. Our operators take that slower than a car load, checking the chock is seated correctly and the straps are snug at the frame, not the fairings or controls, before the truck ever moves.

You likely need motorcycle towing if your motorcycle broke down and will not restart, the bike will not roll due to mechanical failure or a stuck gear, you were in an accident and the bike needs to be moved from the scene, you need the motorcycle transported to a shop for repair, or you do not want a standard tow truck or trailer handling your bike.

Motorcycle Towing questions

Will towing damage my motorcycle?
Not with the right equipment. We use a flatbed with a wheel chock and soft-tie down straps, never chains or hooks directly on the bike, so the frame, fairings, and wheels stay protected.
Can you tow a motorcycle that will not start?
Yes. A dead battery, a stuck gear, or a mechanical failure all work the same way: the bike gets winched or rolled onto the flatbed and strapped down for transport.
Do you tow motorcycles after an accident?
Yes, and we handle accident-damaged bikes with extra care, working the same way we do for accident recovery on cars: careful handling, clear communication, and delivery to your shop or insurance-approved location.
Do you have experience with sport bikes and low-clearance motorcycles?
Yes. Sport bikes, cruisers, and touring motorcycles all get the same wheel-chock-and-soft-tie approach, adjusted for the bike’s specific clearance and balance point.
Can you pick up a motorcycle from a dirt lot or gravel shoulder?
In most cases, yes. Tell dispatch exactly where the bike is and the surface it is on, and we will confirm the flatbed can safely load it from that spot.
How is the bike secured for a longer highway trip?
The same wheel-chock-and-soft-tie setup holds for any trip length. For longer hauls we double-check strap tension partway through if the drop-off is far enough to warrant it.
Can you tow a motorcycle with an aftermarket exhaust or low-hanging parts?
Yes. Mention any aftermarket exhaust, low pipes, or added parts when you call so the operator can plan strap placement and ramp angle around them.
What if my motorcycle fell over before you arrive?
If it is safe to do so and you are physically able, upright it carefully to avoid further fluid leaks or damage. If not, leave it and tell dispatch, our operator can right it safely on arrival.
Can you tow a motorcycle from a parking garage or tight space?
In most cases, yes. Tell dispatch the exact location and any access restrictions so the operator can plan how to get the flatbed close enough to load safely.
