It’s always a good safety precaution to drain your gas tank and remove your battery. You can also opt to crate your motorcycle at this point.
Wash your motorcycle even if it will be shipping on an open trailer. You want to be able to spot any chips, dings, nicks or other anomalies before shipment.
If your motorcycle has an alarm, disarm it before shipment.
Be sure to secure any loose parts and specialty items such as exhaust, saddle bags, tank bags, hard luggage, fairings and anything else that could get in the way during transport.
Make sure that your tires are properly inflated and that you don’t have any fluid leaks.
Have a specific list with any problems your motorcycle may have. You carrier will want to know of such things during the loading and unloading of your motorcycle.
To prevent disputes of possible damage during shipment, make a report of any existing damage prior to pickup. You may also want to take dated pictures of your motorcycle.
