Just purchased a 6 x 12 MTI enclosed trailer to haul my Road King Classic. Time to figure out the best option for securing the bike in the trailer. I like the Lock N Load system currently on the market. I can purchase it online for $215.00. Anyone have any experience, or issues with this set-up? Thanks!

Couldnt find much here..Hope you get your info...

 

I have a Kendon trailer...it has one of these for the front tire...but not exactly the same one.....it actually holds the bike up with no problem, but, when I actually trailer it i use a strap to hold the tire in place and 4 other points to make sure the bike doesn't move.

 

Get a Condor wheel chock and trailer adapter, that way you can take it out and use it to work on the bike in the garage.

The Condor chock when properly mounted will hold the bike without straps. I am not suggesting you try that, but it does 99% of the work and the straps keep the back of the bike from moving and the front straps just compress the suspension

I use 6 straps and the Condor, but I have used just 2 straps and the chock on short hauls.

none of the bikes I have transported using that chock have moved in transport

I don't have a pic of the bagger on the trailer, but this was after 1600 mile trip and it didn't move at all




this is how I use it in the garage.... keeps the bike from taking up space by standing it straight up, and you would need 4 guys to push that bike over when it is in the chock

 

1) Wheel chock; either Condor Pit Stop (what I have) or a HF chock.

2) Powertye 2" Big Daddy trailer kit straps (what I have)

3) 4 tie down points

 

Wheel chock, and retractable ratchet straps are what we currently use, been hauling motorcycles for 30 years.

 

From what I hear, compressing the front forks will cause seal damage when tied down. I like the idea of strapping the front tire, and not the forks or handlebars. Not really concerned about what the wheel chock does out of the trailer (I have a big garage).

 

I strap down the front on the forks just above the fender mounts and the rear on the frame inside the footboards.

I don't compress the forks which allows the bike's suspension to move freely.

 

Another vote for simply restraining the front wheel; I use Wheel Docks...have a pair of 2X2's screwed into the floor for each of the back tires (haul 2 Dyna's in a 6X10) and that's it. Flawless

 

I use E-Track chocks and ratchet straps also.
