Recovering a motorcycle is nothing like recovering a car. It needs the right equipment, the right straps, and someone who has done it hundreds of times. Here is what happens when you call us out to a bike.
The kit we bring
Every motorcycle recovery goes out with soft loops, ratchet straps, a front wheel chock and a low-angle ramp. Fairings and clip-ons are protected with padding, and we anchor to the frame or bars — never to a mirror, exhaust or fairing bracket.
Loading the bike
We roll the bike up the ramp with the engine off, wheel it into the chock, and take four points of tension so the forks are compressed slightly. That stops the bike shifting even if we have to brake hard on the way.
Where we can take it
Home, your dealer, a friend's garage, or an MOT station — anywhere in the UK. We give you a firm price before we load, based on the distance and time of day.
If you are stranded on a bike, call us. We will be with you as soon as possible and get you and your machine home safely.
