I've had Pingle pop chock's for at least 10 years and never had a problem with them. I load my FLHX strap it down by myself in 15 minutes. I strap from the handle bars forward to floor "D" rings and from the rear boards forward to additional floor "D" rings. Thousands of miles traveled this way without issue. I use "the larger Hog Ties at the front and 1" Ancra's ar the rear boards. The Pingle chock stores small and out of the way for a smooth floor when not traveling.

I have a Baxley Sport Chock that I used for my sportbike. Works great for my ultra. Just drive it on and hop off. It locks it in. Similar to condor.

I ordered the Condor chock and the e track adapter today, so I'm gonna use both in my enclosed 6x12. Ordered the Condor from Amazon, e track is available everywhere.

Default Condor and HF

I've used the Condor and the HF as a 2nd for nearly 5 years now. Have hauled each of the FLSTC and the Ultra with the condor as a single; and used the harbor freight as the 2nd with a son's SG.... no problems ever.

As others have said condor makes a wheel chock, been using for awhile myself. Make sure you get some heavy duty tie downs. Here is a link to a company that makes some really nice ones www.powertye.com

got my condor from these folks on ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/CONDOR-PSTK-...ht_3916wt_1159

comes with the quick detach trailer mount and free shipping. use my condor more in the garage than i do on a trailer. works great for general maint on the bike.

E-track. Several posts have said the track is available everywhere, but I can't find a store named everywhere. I went by the dealer and he checked the Drag Specialties catalog and they show some of the chocks and braces, but no e-track. Camping World where I took the truck to get the hitch installed suggested the dealer. Haven't checked the home improvement stores but just don't think they will carry this. Anyone have a suggestion to an actual store that carries it? For my application I figure 7-8' sections needed.

You need a place that deals with semi truck and trailer parts. Up here we have Catco http://www.catcoparts.com/Home.html
Find a place like this in your area. It will be a lot cheaper also.

Default straps

I also use the Condor and saw these on Ebay for straps. Look pretty good.

I have a Baxley LA chock. I like it because as you drive onto it the tire cradle clamps onto the tire. I use Moki rigid stabilizers from the frame with a ratchet strap on the front axle so the forks are not compressed.
