We are ready to install wheel chocks (Pingels) and tiedowns in our enclosed trailer in preparation for the 2014 Drag Specialties vendor ride next week in Georgia.


Any suggestions as to how to strap the bikes in place would be welcome. We have about 5,000 combined years of experience in towing boats, but towing bikes is a new-to-us adventure.


Luckily, our Ft Lauderdale facility houses our strap-making operation, so we can fabricate any size/style tiedown you can suggest.


Thanks in advance


(the best suggestions will get a bucket of Star brite & Star Tron bike care products)

 

hellooooooo? Anybody out there?

 

Hey Bill, as far as ties I really don't have much for you, but I included a link for a motorcycle chock. Saw this thing in sturgis about 8 years ago when the guy was just developing it. I have thought about it ever since and will eventually get one. It is definately more expensive, but you might be as impressed with it as I was / am. I think that they actually advertise the bike upside down and still controlled by this Chock. It's pretty awesome. Let me know what you think of it.

I like the Condor Pit Stop system. Check it out.

 

I use e track with good tie downs. With 2 short e tracks going sideways to use and be able to adjust my wheel chock. I really like the soft ties built on the HD tie downs. Lot less cost than $380 for each bike. Ouch.
