DIY: Setup a Hauling Truck

By Darnell Austria


Putting together your trailer that will carry your bike comfortably is but one great way to travel with your motorcycle intact and buckled snugly while you settle back and enjoy the scenery. After all, you would like to preserve the paint and chrome fresh and spotless. Right?

This particular setup can certainly haul 3 bikes in a good trailer and that's what exactly we require, to maximize the availability of area. The whole operation will take little amount of time and physical skill; the results are awesome even on a decent trailer like ours.

Step 1: Start off by cutting several lengths of E-track to be used for your D-ring clips to keep the motorbike down.

Step 2: The E-track is going to be screwed into the wood flooring of the trailer; some people prefer several hardware bolt all the way through with a nut on the underside.

Step 3: When in position on both ends of the trailer the E-track will offer several installation spots of the D-rings to make sure that any length motorcycle can be lodged.

Step 4: And then, mark the area you choose the detachable chocks and mark the area where installation padding will be installed.

Step 5: These do get go through mounting bolts with washers and lock nuts.

Step 6: This is a good design at the tabs that are at the base of the chocks and the way they flow in the receivers.

Step 7: Use two sets of installation components to make certain that either a skinny chock, for a thin 21 inch tire, or a broad wheel, for a fat tire fastener could be put to use.

Step 8: The front wheel of the 1949 bike is placed in the slim chock, this is the perfect fit and won't allow the slim wheel loose.

Step 9: Next, are the strap holders. Using a holder that will keep things organized is a good way to make certain practically nothing will get missing and to keep your truck neat and tidy.

That's it; an easy approach to build a lifting trailer regardless if there's only a little space. It only takes a handful of supplies together with a little bit of time and energy, and you'll accomplish it in not time. You could carry nearly every motorbike with this setup. This is great for moving old classic motorbikes since you know how delicate they may be and securing them this way is the greatest technique of doing it.

As always, just before all of us head out and part ways, make sure "always" wear protective gear when riding on a motorcycle. Whether you happen to be travelling to another state or simply around the corner, you will never know when the time comes if a collision might possibly occur. Take a look at this cool video of a sophisticated German motorcycle helmet that is the toughest sold on the market. It is made of Kevlar and carbon fiber; this gives you the lightest, strongest, and the most crafted motorcycle headgear you will find in the market! Have a happy ride and safety is often number one.
