Expert Answers about Ford Motorcycle Tie Down Straps


  • Anchoring E-Track On Floor Of Van For Transporting a Motorcycle
  • To secure the Erickson Horizontal E-Track # EM59150 you need to use the E-Track Backing Plates # e66RR to secure them to the floor. The screws can easily pull out of the plywood especially considering your van will be absorbing a lot of road shock. You will want to ensure that the plywood is also secured to the floor either with the backing plates or in another similar manner. This will ensure that your Harley stays secured to the floor and will not move. I recommend using the Erickson...

  • Recommended Motorcycle Chock for 2011 Honda Goldwing
  • I have a solution for you, but the # BWMC2301 is not a confirmed fit and B&W does not offer a Biker Bar for a Honda Goldwing. Instead, the best option we have for you is the Tow-Rax Removable Wheel Chock part # TWSPWM. It can be bolted directly to the trailer floor, it will accept different wheels sizes, and there is no interference issues with your front brakes. If you don't already have a set of shock absorbing ratchet straps, I recommend using the ShockStrap Ratcheting Motorcycle...

  • Is There a B&W Biker Bar Compatible with a 2020 Indian Springfield Motorcycle
  • I may have a solution for you, but B&W does not make a Biker Bar that is compatible with Indian motorcycles. However, you can use something like the Brophy Swiveling D-Ring Anchors w Backing Plates and Hardware - Bolt-On - 2,000 lbs - Qty 4 # RR6K-4, which will bolt right to your wood floor and give you a secure way to transport your bike. You could use these with some ShockStrap Ratchet Tie-Down Straps w Shock Absorbers - 2" x 9' - 2,000 lbs - Qty 2 # 297-9RSDB and give yourself a safe...

  • Is The B&W Biker Bar Capable of Being Used On a 2021 Indian Challenger?
  • I have some recommendations as the Biker Bar from B&W is specific to Harley and similar chassis vehicles. Your 2021 Indian Challenger has a much different frame and will not work on the Biker Bar system. Instead you should use a Flint Hill Goods Adjustable Wheel Chock # FHG37ZR along with the ShockStrap Ratchet Motorcycle Tie-Downs # 297-9RSBB-M. The wheel chock is adjustable and will fit wheels 17" to 21" and tires 3-1/8" to 7-1/8" wide. It will help to hold your Indian in position while...

  • How to Carry a 220 lbs Dirt Bike with a 2013 Toyota RAV4

  • Front Hitch and Hitch Dirt Bike Carrier for 2003 Ford E-450 RV Cutaway Van
  • For your RV that is based on the 2003 Ford E-450 RV cutaway chassis you can use the Draw-Tite front-mount hitch # 65001 which is the same item you referenced in your question. Draw-Tite's written instructions and an install video are included for you.

  • How to Choose the Correct Tie-Down for a Boat and Trailer
  • When choosing tie-down straps like the BoatBuckle G2 Retractable Tie-Down Strap, # IMF14220, you will want to keep a few things in mind. Boat tie-downs are designed for normal highway driving. The purpose of most boat tie-downs is to strap the lightest object to the heaviest object, meaning you will want to choose a tie-down with a break strength that exceeds the weight of the lightest object. For example, if your boat weighs 4,000 lbs and your trailer weighs 2,000 lbs, you will want to...

  • Recommended Tie-Down Straps For 10,000lb Boat
  • The break strength of the strap needs to exceed the weight of your trailer. While this sounds strange, you want to choose a strap based on the lightest item that is being strapped, in this case, the trailer and not your 10,000lb boat. If your trailer weighs less than 2,500lbs, which I imagine it does, then I recommend going with BoatBuckle G2 Retractable, Ratcheting Transom Tie-Down Straps - 43" Long # IMF08893 which has a break strength of 2,500lbs. I attached a demonstration video for you.

  • Tie Down Straps Needed To Secure 10,300LB Boat To Triple Axle Trailer When Hauling
  • To ensure that you have enough straps for your boat when loaded on your boat trailer you will need to know the weight of both the boat and trailer.

The BoatBuckle G2 Retractable, Ratcheting Bow Tie # IMF14393 has a break strength of 2,500lbs. Pair this with the BoatBuckle G2 Retractable, Ratchet Transom Tie-Downs # IMF14256 and...
