Talking Anyone Using Strapless Tie Downs?

I have been looking at the new variety of strapless tie down systems that are coming out. They look like the way to go. Has anyone used or had any experience with any of these strapless tie down systems?

I built one very much like the second one on your list, except it had a pair of "ears" permanently mounted below the frame under the tranny. It worked great in the trailer but the ears hanging down from the frame used to bottom out on speed bumps, etc. when I was riding with a passenger. When my friends were checking/rechecking their straps, I didn't need to. These look a little better engineered.

BTW I only trailered in the winter to get to the south.

I think I will probably buy the Roberts Products, because nothing remains on the bike. Thanks for the input.

Default Condor

I use a Condor wheel lock, it's not strapless but does hold the bike well enough that I can get off then strap it down.

I'm paranoid, I use six straps even with the condor.

I used this on my HD and chopper. Worked flawlessly and was very easy to install. Expensive but worth every penny

Running the Biker Bar and purchased 4 bars and two mounts to load a combination of bikes. Very happy with the design and method.
