looking for some advice on trailering my ultra classic I have a condor wheel chock that I will be installing trailer was just wondering where the best point to strap it down is. any advice would be great

 

I use the same chock. I use soft straps over my lower triple trees around fork. Then I put one through rear wheel and pull to rear.

 

Just ride it.

 

Always gotta be one, huh?
Even a Newb to boot..

Op was just asking for advice.
If you don't have anything to add.

Just tie it to anything that won't break. Not the handlebars unless you have some good after market bars, the harley stock bars are very thin. And don't scratch the paint.

I put a strap around the front wheel and pull it tight to the chock just to make sure that the wheel is immoveable. I then use soft ties (short straps) around the trees to attach the actual hooks to. I alternate sides tightening it down keeping the bike vertical. Then straps from the rear, side to side, not tight, just enough to keep the back of the bike from walking to either side.

Do not leave the kick/jiffy stand down.
If it's an open trailer:
Do not put a cover over the bike.It will flap and damage paint/chrome
Make sure the ends of all the straps are secured so they don't flap in
in the wind.

 

One trick a buddy taught me many years ago...

Slide a wood block under the frame before you tighten the tie downs. I take a 2x4 and 4x4 and screw em together (bout 18" long each). The trick is to have it tall enough so you have only about 1-2" between the frame and block. Then tighten your straps till the frame is solidly on the wood block. As for tie down points, I've used engine guards, handlebars, etc. with good results doing this.

Usually, I'll just put a couple straps on the rear just to minimize side to side movement, but don't think this is really needed with the frame solidly pulled down on the block.

I've used this method for many years trailering mine and other's bikes, and never had one even think about coming loose.

 

I have the Kuryakyn tie down points on the forks, really makes it easy to strap down bagger
