Bike stand for trailers

Written by 

A MOTORCYCLE transport frame proved popular on Brent Smith Trailers’ site at National Fieldays.

 

The frame fits all the company’s 2400 x 1400mm trailers with stock crates.

“A lot of farmers prop their bikes on hay bales or lay them down, which is not good for the bike,” owner Brent Smith said.

The device fits into the lugs that carry the stock crates. Models are available that can carry two or three bikes and are all hot-dip galvanised. 

Plenty of lugs and hooks are fitted, for attaching tie downs to secure the bikes. 

The frames suit all bikes – farm, dirt, racing and scramble.

Access is either a rear barred gate that hinges down so the bikes can be ridden up, or a single portable ramp that clips to the rear of the trailer.

The model pictured costs $430 incl. GST.
