Patent ID: 7198443

Claim:
A device for securing a motorcycle, comprising in combination: a motorcycle defining a substantially horizontal bore extending between a first side of said motorcycle and a second side of said motorcycle; a crossbar having a first end and a second end, said crossbar having a length greater than a length of said substantially horizontal bore and being dimensioned to be inserted through said bore; a first cap removably coupled to said first end of said crossbar, said first cap having a diameter greater than a diameter of said bore; a second cap coupled to said second end of said crossbar, said second cap having a diameter greater than the diameter of said bore; at least one crossbar attachment mechanism dimensioned to be coupled to at least one of said first cap and said second cap in order to secure transport of said motorcycle while said crossbar is inserted therethrough; and a first collar movably coupled to said crossbar so that said first collar is positionable against one of said first side and said second side of said motorcycle, whereby a positioning of said first collar against the one of said first side and said second side of said motorcycle constrains a movement of said motorcycle relative to said crossbar.
