Motorcycle Tie-down Straps HL2608
The Hydralift HL2608 Non-Scratch Power Straps are the new generation tie-down system.
Hydralift starts with 3,500 lb Extreme Endurance Industrial Grade Webbing constructed of super tight weave pattern providing superior elongation (low stretch).
HL2608 Tie-downs come with built-in soft ties which are loops sewn into the straps for preserving paint and chrome.
The HL2608 Tie-down adds a strong smooth crank locking ratchet that is corrosion and rust resistant. Ratchet tie-downs let you increase the tension on the motorcycles suspension, which in turn will reduce shock loading the straps when the trailer hits a bump. Shock loading occurs when the motorcycle's suspension compresses to absorb the shock. The tie-down straps go slack and then are snapped tight as the suspension expands. To eliminate shock loading without requiring extreme compression of the front suspension.
We recommend that you tie-down the motorcycle by either the frame or a part solidly mounted to the frame of the bike.
On most touring and sport bikes we recommend using ratchet straps with soft loops to surround the triple tree. At the back of the bike we recommend that you tie a soft loop around the passenger handgrips, the passenger foot pegs, or the rear frame of the bike itself. This will require a little bit of experimentation as your bike may have pipes or other parts that could interfere with the strap's run. Things to watch out for would include dull as well as sharp corners as chafe is a major cause of strap failure and hot pipes or anything that might be damaged if a metal portion of the ratchet contacts a chromed part of the bike. Sometimes interference or contact can be avoided by reversing the strap, which would move where the ratchet sits in relation to the bike.
Finally: Always check your tie-down points for tightness.
Motorcycle Wheel Chocks HLWC39
For any motorcycle Tie-down system to be safe and secure there must be a way of insuring that the motorcycle once tied down, will not move. The best means of accomplishing this is by preventing forward motion, preventing the front wheel from turning and by using tie-down straps to pull the bike down on the suspension and forward against the wheel chock.
The idea of a roll-on wheel lock is a good one, for a trailer application. When installed on a lift situation the problem comes when your try to remove your motorcycle, you do not have the room a trailer has and in many cases your motorcycles are much heaver than a light weight dirt bike or scooter requiring much more muscle to walk your motorcycle back to release the wheel lock.
The Hydralift HLWC39 is a front wheel chock for Hydralift owners that is a direct fit to the Hydralift ramp and in most cases using the existing drilled holes.
The HLWC39 is specially designed reducing the amount of strength it would normally take you to pull off your motorcycle from other wheel lock systems.
Best of all, because the HLWC39 utilizes by working together with the Hydralift ramp and front wheel loop chock the cost is much less expensive.
