Watling Motorack - Scooter and Motorbike Carrier

The Motorack scooter carrier is the ideal method for transporting a scooter or small motorbike with you on your journeys

The Watling Motorack is fast becoming the ‘new standard’ for towbar-mounted motorbike carryers. Both lightweight and easy to use, it has been designed for single person operation and comes complete with everything you need to get going.

The Watling Motorack simply bolts onto an existing ‘flange’ type towbar and can accommodate most mopeds/scooters or motocross bikes up to 130kg in weight with a wheelbase of up to 1500mm. It can also be used to transport up to two bicycles.

Having a motorbike carrier or scooter rack is an ideal way of taking your local transport with you when you go away in your motorhome. Anyone with a full UK driving licence can ride a 50cc motorbike or scooter with no further qualifications required. It gives you the freedom to pop into town or go and see the local sights without having to pack up your whole motorhome!

The many benefits of a Watling Motorack include:

  • Higher speed limits as you are not restricted by UK trailer limitations
  • No parking or reversing difficulties
  • Easy storage
  • Suitable for most 4x4’s, Motorhomes and vans*

*Please check the max nose weight of your towbar.

*Overloading your vehicle can be dangerous. Please use our motorhome axle loads form to check that you are within your safe limits. Click here for more details

The Watling Motorack is finished in galvanised steel and enamel to ensure a long life and comes complete with a 1m loading ramp, 4’ lighting board, and 2 tie-down straps so you are ready to go as soon as it arrives.

Prices from £235 +Vat (£276 inc. vat).

Locate the loading ramp at the rear of the tray. Push the bike up the ramp and locate the front wheel into the support hoop

The Motorack is finished in galvinised steel and enamel paint for a hard wearing finish.

The motorack is designed to have as small an overhang as possibible.
  After a few minutes securing your bike with the straps provided you can be on your way The Motorack is also suitable for many motocross bikes and because of its design, can quickly be adapted to carry different sized bikes.

Bicycle Adaptor

From time to time, you may wish to adapt your Motorack to carry bicycles instead of a scooter. To assist with this we have designed a simple cycle adaptor that can be added or removed when necessary. Costing only an additional £30 this gives maximum versatility for minimal money.

The cycle adaptor is attached in seconds and gives extra support for up to 2 bikes.

Scooter rain covers

To complement your scooter and Motorack we can provide waterproof covers in various colours and sizes. All Bike Covers are British made and manufactured from a triple layer protection fabric called WEBFLEX. This is a unique multi-layered fabric that has been designed to protect bikes from the harmful effects of direct sunlight, dirt abrasion and elements of the weather and is 100% waterproof.

For complete all weather durability the cover is lap-seamed to ensure that it remains watertight and breathable. All covers will keep your bike free from the natural damage caused by acid rain, bird droppings, dampness and direct UV light.

  • Durable non-abrasive fabric
  • Recommended for outdoor and indoor use
  • Storage bag included.

With prices starting from £35 inc. vat it is an ideal way of protecting your scooter from motorway muck and grime while it is on the back of your motorhome, or for everyday use at home.

Please note, covers are available for every size of bike, so please call for more information.
