Carrying a Kawasaki KLR250 Motorcycle in a Trailer
Question:
My bike has broken down and I need to tow it to the repair shop. Will Kawasaki KLR250 fit in a 6 ft x 4 ft trailer?

Expert Reply:
From my research your Kawasaki measures over 7 feet from end to end. Depending on the style of trailer you might be able to get it in a 4 x 6 because the wheelbase is only about 4-3/4 feet but there's going to be some overhang. In my opinion you're much better off with an 8 foot trailer.
To secure the bike you'll want to use straps like part # 34414 and a chock like part # TWSPWM.
