PRINTABLE TOWCHECK CHECKLIST

Motorcycle securement checklist

Use this planning aid alongside the exact manufacturer documentation and qualified inspection appropriate to your equipment.

1. □Confirm the hitch carrier weight limit or trailer capacity exceeds total bike and gear weight
2. □Verify the front wheel chock matches the tire width and is bolted securely to the deck
3. □Roll the motorcycle straight into the chock until the pivot gate or clamp engages
4. □Loop soft ties around the lower triple clamp or frame, avoiding brake lines and wires
5. □Attach ratchet straps to the soft loops and pull forward at a 45-degree angle on both sides
6. □Tighten both side straps symmetrically to pull the front wheel firmly into the chock
7. □Secure two rear straps to the frame or swingarm to prevent the back end from bouncing or sliding
8. □Shake the motorcycle to confirm it does not lean or wiggle inside the chock
