Bike shifting requires proper handling and packaging. Begin by draining fuel and disconnecting the battery. Remove accessories like mirrors or saddle bags to avoid damage during transit.
Use a professional crating service or at least ensure that your bike is bubble-wrapped and strapped securely. Take photos of the bike before packing and note existing scratches or dents for insurance claims if needed.
Always opt for a company that offers insurance and GPS tracking. IBA-approved carriers follow specific guidelines for vehicle transport, so ensure your provider has the right documentation and reviews.
