All good sugustions! My only addition would be to get some soft ties. They are loops of nylon tie strap with a loop in each end. The go around the bars, paint or whatever with out maring. I would also use ratching tie downs. The hevy duty type.

I like the condor but will the rear part of the chock fit with the fender skirt on the front fender? That skirt sits low on a UC.

 

Yes! That skirt sits low on a UC....No! the condor does not hit the skirt.
I have the condor and I use it with my Ultra, and my ultra is lowered front and rear.
You can adjust the pin/pivot pointso the moving forward motion hangs tight on the tire.
When the most front part of the tire hits against the vertical part of the condor the moving part with the tire lock in tight.
At this point you can get off your bike and place your straps without your kick stand down because yourbike is secure in the condor.

all this works great, only if you have the pin/pivot point in the right spot.
I also use the straps with velcro to help hold the tire/wheel in place while towing.

Without digging the trailer out of the snowto see it today, here's a picture of the right setting for my Ultra.
I think it's at the second set of holes from the back ?
I'll look when the snow is gone. lol

One other thing you might do to a trailer is install back up lights. A lot of them don't have them. Not just for night time But for trying to back up and some one is behind you and don't have a clue you are trying to move with them on your bumper. Also beeper for that occasion.

 

Thanks chappy, thats what i was looking for. Gonna pick one up real soon.

 

I did a lot of pricing research andbought minehere.

 

I use a variation of the Condor chock. I made up some plans to construct a wheel chock that works in the same way as the condor chock. (kinda a mix between the condor chock and the easy chock) It works great!! If you can cut, drill & weldmetal then you can build one for about $25. Anybody who's interested I will sell the plans for $15, just PM me and I will email you the picture of a finished one (can't post a picture right now because I'm at work). They look pretty much like a condor chock and work the same way. I sold a few finished chocksfor $125 but just don't have the time to keep making them.

 

When my money jar gets full enough to buy a toy hauler, I’m going to get one of these and fu-get-about-it: http://www.robertsprod.com/
