Motorcycle towing
 
Anyone know a reasonably priced motorcycle towing company? Just bought a new bike but my regular guy seems to be on vacation.

Already tried calling a bunch of towing companies in Surrey and Langley, but they all charge $180+ for their flatbeds :okay:

Bike's going from Langley to Delta.

Thanks!!

bcaa with motorcycle towing is ~120 bucks a year, comes with 6 tows per year, might be a good option

I ended up going with bikesmove.ca. I will let you guys know how it goes!

Dumb question but new bike ... Langley to Delta, why can't you ride it? Unless by 'new' you mean new to you but needs some mechanical work?

BCCA is your best bet, and they're usually pretty good about it. For $140 you get 6 tows and they'll even bring you gas or a battery boost too. it's pretty slick

Tried BCAA, but you need to have the "motorcycle towing" option selected when you sign up for the year. Also, they will only provide roadside assistance to insured vehicles. They don't tow non-running bikes.

i can probably help you out, just pay for the uhaul trailer rental (14 dollars) and whatever you think you should pay for gas! =)

looking for anyone that can help me tow my motorcycle!
from richmond to vancouver!

Raid3n 03-16-2014 12:40 PM

see above. would probably be your best bet. or if it runs and is insured and the only thing preventing you from moving it is a license, get a buddy to ride it.

fliptuner 03-20-2014 04:05 PM

I should sell off some BCAA tows before renewal time. Only problem is, I need to be at the pick up.
