There are numerous reasons why someone would need to transport a motorcycle. No matter the reason, a motorcycle transportation company can offer their customers a few options to ship their bike to its destination in Oklahoma City. Not all shipping services have the same shipping options or the best deals. It is important to do some research on multiple services before signing with a company.
A reliable company will be able to provide their customers with written proof of insurance both cargo and liable. All motorcycle transportation companies have an obligation to register with the Department of Transportation and to have an active DOT number and MC number. Ask the carrier to provide pictures of the equipment they use to transport motorcycle to be sure they suit the needs of the bike.
Don’t be fooled by auto transportation companies who do not specialize in the transportation of motorcycles. A legitimate service will have multiple shipping options, state of the art transportation equipment and a good reputation.
Methods Used to Transport a Motorcycle.
How a person decides to transport their motorcycle all depends on preference and convenience. The prices vary depending on which method a customer chooses, but cheaper is not necessarily better. Some options such as, Enclosed Transportation and Crated Transportation are worth the extra dollar because the bike is completely protected against driving conditions and the elements.
Open Air Transportation is a perfectly sound method to transport a motorcycle and thousands of customers choose to transport their bike in this fashion. Before choosing a method of transportation, take climate change from state to state and the season into consideration.
Preparing a Bike for Transportation.
- Clean dirt, dust and deposits from the motorcycle
- Remove any loose objects and items
- Disable the alarm system
- Check fluids, tire pressure and battery
- Gas reading should not be below ¼ tank before transportation
- Document all damages to the motorcycle before transportation
