Wheel Check and Wheel Strap for Trailering Honda Goldwing Trike
Question:
I am looking looking at wheel chock solutions for my bike. I own a newer Honda Goldwing that is triked and I trailer the bike. Will this chock accommodate my wheel size without hitting the front brake disc. If so, my bike has electric reverse which has very little stress point to knock it off reserve. Since I also have floorboards it is difficult to move the bike backwards with my feet. Can this chock be adjusted in any way to make it easy to release the wheel. I guess I could not add the rear piece and use it just to hold the bike in place with tie downs but prefer not too if possible. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks

Our wheel chocks like the Rack 'Em # RA-17 that you referenced do not have any adjustment or tension control. The # RA-17 accommodates front tires up to 6-1/2-inches wide. For clearance at your brake disc, the Rack'Em # RA-17 is a great choice.
Since you are trailering your trike you might want to consider also using a wheel tie-down set-up like the Pack'Em # PK-WTD. This consists of two bolt-down steel chocks that stabilize the rear tire and also allow for attachment of the included wheel strap. Two of these kits could be used on your rear tires along with a front tire wheel chock. Please refer to the linked video.
