Philipjj83 Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Hi, new to trials and my van is a astra van so the bike has to go on its side. My question is will the fuel / water run out? Is there anything I should be doing b4 I place it on its side? Thanks phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirdabalot Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Turn off petrol and drain carburettor or run the engine till it uses up the petrol in the carburettor. It may lose oil from the gearbox breather too depending on which bike. Try leaving it on its side in the garage a few hours and see what comes out.

suzuki250 Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 would it fit in if you dropped the handle bars? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyc21 Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Could you put it in at an angle? Maybe get some kind of crate or build a support framework from inexpensive timbers with some padding to at least minimize spill potential? Good luck.
