For many of us, our motorcycles are our babies and we take very good care of them. But what happens if you are moving cross country or overseas and need to ship your bike a very long distance? Here are 6 helpful tips on motorcycle transport from your vehicle shipping specialists at Auto Transport Quotes.<\/p>\n

1. Clean It Up<\/strong><\/p>\n

Before shipping, wash the bike completely. Remove all dirt and debris from tires and everywhere on the frame. If the bike is going to be shipped in an open container, consider waxing with a high quality wax. You also may want to place a cover over it before shipping.<\/p>\n

2. Check it Out<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now is the time to do a full maintenance check. Make sure the oil is full and check the battery and tires. If the bike has a radiator, check it also. If you do this now, you won’t have to worry about it when your motorcycle transport<\/a> service delivers your bike.<\/p>\n

3. Remove the Extras<\/strong><\/p>\n

Do you have accessories like saddle bags or mirrors? You might want to remove them and put them in a safe place. This will help to eliminate damages which can sometimes occur during transit.<\/p>\n

4. Photographs<\/strong><\/p>\n

Auto Transport Quotes<\/a> provides safe deliveries with few problems. However, anything can happen, so it’s a good idea to take pictures of your bike before it is shipped. In case you have to file a claim for damages, this will provide documented proof.<\/p>\n

5. Theft Insurance<\/strong><\/p>\n

Check with your motorcycle transport service and insurance agent about theft insurance. If you are not covered, you can take out a special policy.<\/p>\n

6. Go with Experience<\/strong><\/p>\n

When you choose a shipping service for your bike, choose a company with experience. Auto Transport Quotes has years of experience with national and international shipping and you can contact us toll free today at 1-800-385-7591.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
