How to Tow a Motorcycle With the Minute Man XD Wheel Lift

Towing a motorcycle can be challenging if you don’t have the right equipment. Luckily, the Minute Man XD Wheel Lift paired with our specially designed motorcycle attachment makes the entire process a simple, efficient, one-person job. 

Whether you’re transporting a bike for personal reasons or you run a towing business, our tool can help you get the job done quickly and safely. 

How does it work? Let’s walk through the process step by step.

Step-by-Step Guide on How to Tow a Motorcycle with the Minute Man XD Wheel Lift Attachment 

1. Prepare the Wheel Lift and Motorcycle Attachment

The first step in this process is to install the motorcycle attachment to the wheel lift. This unique attachment is designed for quick and easy setup, making the transition from towing cars to motorcycles seamless.

Securely attach the motorcycle attachment to the Minute Man XD Wheel Lift. The quick-release design allows you to install or remove it within minutes.

2. Secure the Motorcycle

Once the motorcycle attachment is set up, you can load and secure the bike.

Position the motorcycle so the front wheel fits snugly into the auto-loading front chock. This chock will hold the bike upright, allowing you to safely strap it down without additional assistance.

Use the provided D-rings and rear auto-load attachment to strap the motorcycle in place. Make sure the straps are tight to prevent any movement during transport. 

3. Ensure Safety During Transport

After the bike is secured, it’s crucial to ensure that it will stay safe during the towing journey.

Inspect the straps and the motorcycle to ensure everything is tightly fastened. Pay special attention to the tension in the straps and the placement of the bike on the lift.

Before driving, ensure the motorcycle is properly balanced on the lift to avoid tilting or shifting. Always follow recommended speed limits and driving practices for towing to ensure smooth and safe transport.

Now you’re ready to hit the road – it’s that simple!
