Talking Scraping the Wheeldock

Hey BB Here are pics of my Wheeldock after about 30,000 miles on an 09 Ultra Classic and about 50,000 miles on an 11 Road Glide Ultra https://www.hdforums.com/forum/images/icons/icon10.gif

Scraping that much and you left it on....braver than I. I wanted one when a friend got his, but after see someone lift the rear wheel off the ground (on a different bike no wheel dock) I decided I dont want to take the extra chance, especially since my better half is usually with me.

I have already sheared off a Kury flip blade over a curb turning into a driveway. I can imagine what the wheeldock will do.

The only time I bottomed mine was pulling out of a gas station where there was a deep dip between the lot and the road I was pulling on to. It was not an issue with the wheeldock because I believe I would have bottomed out the frame had the wheeldock not been on.
