I have the HF unit and if you mount it in your trailer with a backing plate and good hardware it works as well as the Condor. I have one in my enclosed trailer. I added the Etrack on each side full length of trailer and their d pulls. That stuff is expensive
(+-$2.50/ft) but if anchored well into the floor framing it works great. I have pulled this rig several K miles without my Ultra moving any at all. Good luck.

Only thing wrong with the HF model is the China stamp on the bottom.Sometimes they are $60 on sale.I run a ratchet hooked to the eye bolt around the floorboard and back to the eye bolt for very secure binding while trailering.

I took some 100% silicone and put it on the bottom of the front and rear and now it is much better. A thin coat helps.
I made my own. $10 and a few hours of work when the weather was bad. All American made LOL
Why buy it if you can make it.

08 Road King Classic slips right into the simple chock, and there is plenty of clearance.. I thought it might hit, but it wasn't even close. I would be possible for it to hit if you have the cradle set to far back. But I think with it set in the farthest back holes it will still clear..

+1.... I've got three of em and they are worth the $$! One suggestion however is that whatever tie downs you decide to use should NOT be open ended... Yep, make sure that the tie downs you buy can or are closed when in the attached position. Sometimes a trailer flexes just enough during a compression of the suspension that it could come undone... Rare but not impossible
I have 5 wheel chocks. 3 Condor and 2 Harbour Freight. I personally like the Harbour Freight chocks better. They hold the bike in place better plus they are a lot less expensive, the only down side is supporting the Chinese.
