Storage & Transportation

Storage and transport, besides maintenance, are often topics that many motorcyclists are less enthusiastic about. When this is truly necessary, it is important to store or transport the motorcycle correctly so that nothing happens to your beloved steel horse.

Storage & Maintenance

When you put your motorcycle away for storage or for maintenance, there is one part you cannot do without: your stand. Whether it's a side stand, center stand, or a paddock stand and bobbins, it becomes very difficult to keep the motorcycle upright without them. If you want to keep it upright and in place, consider a wheel clamp.  

If it really comes to the point where the motorcycle will not be ridden for a while, it is important that the battery does not lose its power. It is wise to connect it to a battery charger that can charge and maintain the battery, so that the battery remains in top condition. To protect your motorcycle during storage, you can always cover it with a motorcycle cover.

If you plan to use the motorcycle again and want to get started with maintenance - or just want to pamper it during the storage period - we advise you to use a service pit mat. This way, your machine can rest in style and maintenance will also be more pleasant.

Transporting your motorcycle

Whether it's a classic bike you'd rather not ride on muddy roads, or a motorcycle that simply won't start, transporting a motorcycle can be a challenge. The average motorcycle easily weighs over 150kg, so you can't just lift it over your head. Many therefore transport their motorcycle via a trailer, where it is important to secure the motorcycle with tie-down straps. The only challenge then is how to get the motorcycle onto your trailer. Very simple, by using a loading ramp. This way, you can easily ride the motorcycle up.
