Motorcycles need specialist recovery equipment and handling. Here's how Discovery Towing provides safe motorcycle towing across Dundee, Angus, and Tayside.
Specialist Motorcycle Recovery in Dundee and Angus
Motorcycles cannot be towed in the same way as cars. They require specialist equipment including wheel chocks, soft straps, and an enclosed or flatbed vehicle to prevent damage during transport. Discovery Towing provides dedicated motorcycle recovery across Dundee and Angus.
How Motorcycle Towing Works
When our recovery vehicle arrives, your motorcycle is loaded onto a flatbed or placed in a specialist motorcycle carrier van using a hydraulic loading ramp. The front wheel is secured in a wheel chock, and professional soft straps are applied to the frame — never the handlebars or forks — to prevent any stress or scratching during transport.
Common Causes of Motorcycle Breakdowns in Angus
- Chain failures on rural Angus roads
- Tyre punctures — particularly with a lack of runflat capability
- Fuel running out — motorcycles have smaller tanks for their range
- Battery failures in cold Dundee mornings
- Collision damage requiring recovery to a bodyshop
