Step 7
Securing First Motorcycle to MotoTote Dual
Viewing instructions for Max, Max+ Duals
(A.) Grab a Helping Hand
While loading and unloading your MotoTote can easily be a one person job, having a helping hand for your first time ensures the safety of you and your motorcycle.
(B.) Secure Handlebars to Front Tie Down Arm
Depending on how you planned your tie down process, connect the other end of the tie down to either the tiedown loop on the MotoTote or to the handbars on your motorcycle.Locate the correct tie down loops as shown in the photo, to provide maximum leverage.We recommend connecting the one closest to the vehicle first, as it will support the bike and allow you to more easily complete the tie down process.Alternate back and forth while tightening until the bike is secured and centered.Tie off excess straps for safety and security.
(C.) Secure Back of Bike to Rear Tie Down Loops
Locate the correct tie down loops as shown in the photo, to provide maximum leverage.With a single tie down or an AceBikes Tyrefix, tie the strap directly over the back tire and tighten.The main objective here is to keep the rear tire from bouncing out of the track.For a scooter you can go over the seat or luggage rack.
