I just got a 6x12 enclosed trailer to store my Road King in.Can anyone reccomend a wheel chock for the front wheel Any pros and cons to the various types.Would like to hear first hand experiences.
Harbor Freight has a couple types. I've got a similar trailer and used their Condor "clone" chock. Have one in my toy hauler too. Works great and very resonable cost. Do a search you'll get lots of "opinions" here. Holds my HD Ultra just fine but I bolted it to the plywood very securely too. Good luck.
I have three. A Harbor Freight, Wheeldock, and a Condor. All seems to work but I use my Wheeldock the most. There is a difference in quality but I would look and see what you are willing to spend. If money is not the issue I would look at Wheeldock because they are a sponsor on the site. Not sure if there is a Condor sponsor for HD forums.
Wheeldock...we'll get together with a couple other bikes and haul to warmer weather; ONLY wheeldocks allowed in "the big trailer"....seen a near new EG fall over with cheap straps and a Pingle ("I been doin' it this way for hunnerds of years and millions of miles...") My bike is worth it...it also can be used in the shop and can be used alone (ie without help). We buy quality 1" ratchet straps and modify them so they have one long strap and come back into the ratchet in a single loop...then strap the lower forks into the dock so the suspension can ride freely. We also have a cargo camera.....hauling bikes is serious business when you live waaay up here.
When I set up my 6X12 trailer I bought a Bike Pro. When I bought a 7X14 trailer to haul two bikes I bought two Condors. In the garage using both as stand alone's the Bike Pro beat the Condor in my opinion. The Bike Pro was much more stable as a stand alone.
When I mounted them to the floor of the trailer the Bike Pro could be used without straps or tie downs.(not recommended)
When using with tie downs and mounted to the floor they both preformed OK.
If I ever buy another it will be the Bike Pro. I bought them all from Mackie enterprises.
