Warning! Towing your motorcycle in this manner without removing the chain may result in possible transmission damage.



Without the engine running and the drive chain still attached, means your output shaft bearing is spinning at full speed, (with the other gears still meshed together) with no oil lubrication. That may be fine at slow speed for very limited distance but for anything like highway speeds and damage may occur.
