Brooklyn is huge, unpredictable, and packed with narrow streets, potholes, and impatient drivers. If your motorcycle breaks down in the middle of it — whether it’s on Atlantic Avenue, under the BQE, or outside your apartment in Bushwick — knowing how to get it towed properly can save you hundreds of dollars and a whole lot of stress.
Here’s what you need to do when your motorcycle breaks down in Brooklyn — and why MAD Transpo NYC is the borough’s go-to for fast, careful motorcycle towing.
✅ What To Do First If Your Bike Breaks Down in Brooklyn
1. Get Out of the Road (If You Can)
Brooklyn traffic is brutal — especially on major roads like Flatbush Ave, Eastern Parkway, or Grand Street. If you can, push your bike to the curb, sidewalk, or a quiet side street. Do not leave it on a busy street corner unless you want it ticketed or knocked over.
2. Share Your Location
Use your phone to drop a pin or note the closest cross street or landmark. Brooklyn’s grid is less organized than Manhattan — being specific helps the tow tech find you faster.
3. Don’t Use a Regular Tow Company
Most Brooklyn tow companies only know how to haul cars. They’ll try to hook or lift your motorcycle like it’s a Honda Civic — and that’s how bikes end up scratched, dented, or totaled.
You need a towing service that’s 100% focused on motorcycles.

💡 Why AAA and Car Tow Companies Don’t Cut It
AAA is convenient — but slow. And the guy who shows up? Half the time, he won’t have a ramp or chock. Brooklyn’s potholes are bad enough — don’t let an untrained tower destroy your bike trying to “make it work.”
MAD Transpo NYC has the motorcycle expertise, insurance, and respect your ride deserves.
