Understanding the situation
Bent bars, broken lever, leak, indicator in the fairing: riding makes it worse. A Vespa or a Panigale is scratched by a brutal lift. We chock, we strap, we go to the workshop.
Motorcycle hub: /moto/ and /services/depannage-moto/. Motorway: approved service.
What should I do?
- Injuries: 112
- Switch off, leaks / petrol
- Photos for insurance
- Do not test the steering by riding

Motorcycle on the ground: fairing, leak, geometry
After a drop, the two-wheeler is loaded strapped, not in a generic skip. TMAX, GS, Panigale, Vespa, MP3: different masses and tie-down points. Check for leaks, indicators, bars. See /moto/ and /services/depannage-moto/.
Injured person: 15 / 112. Motorway: approved recovery. Photos before lifting if the insurer asks.
Who attends, and from where
SkyRoute Auto is an independent breakdown, towing and transport provider, based at 74 bis Route d’Étrembières, 74100 Annemasse , France. For motorcycle or scooter drop, the call comes through on a local number (06 82 96 40 84): not a national switchboard promising “20 minutes anywhere in France”. The slot we give depends on traffic, weather, access (surface, underground, snow) and the distance from Annemasse .
We remain outside insurers’ official networks. You can appoint us for motorcycle or scooter drop, obtain an invoice, then submit the file to your roadside assistance: any reimbursement depends solely on your policy. Keep the case number if one already exists.
On a motorway or expressway, the initial recovery remains the approved circuit (SOS phone or 112, dispatch may be via sos-auto-moto.fr). SkyRoute Auto then handles repatriation or transport to a garage, home or Switzerland — see our motorway procedure . In town, a car park or a residence, you call us directly.
What we need for a useful quote
To handle motorcycle or scooter drop without a second trip: exact address (street, car park, floor, badge / intercom), make and model, manual or automatic gearbox, whether the vehicle still rolls, the destination you want, photos of the access and of the vehicle. Mention a high-voltage pack (hybrid / electric), a motorcycle, a van or a prestige car: the equipment is not the same.
Hours: 24/7 subject to availability, including weekends and bank holidays. Life-threatening emergency or a blocked carriageway: prefer a phone call. Planned transport: online quote . Base rates inc. VAT (daytime, straightforward access, Genevois): car breakdown recovery 99 € – 139 €, car towing 169 € – 209 € — more distant communes, Switzerland, night work and difficult access are surcharged; see our pricing page.
Frequently asked questions
- Will you pick the motorcycle up?
- If it is safe. Otherwise adapted loading to avoid a second drop.
- MP3 three-wheeler?
- Yes, specific geometry. See /marques/piaggio/.
- Do I need a statement or an insurance file for motorcycle or scooter drop?
- Not to appoint us. If an insurer is already involved, keep the case number. SkyRoute Auto invoices the local job; reimbursement is not automatic.
