TrophyHunter 15 Posted June 15, 2013 With all the stuff we put on our bikes, sometimes finding a place for a tie down is a challenge. Wandering the 'net, I found THESE interesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tntmo 915 Posted June 15, 2013 That's a pretty good idea. I had a tie down idea a few years ago that I've considered working on, but this one is better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SteelRain 0 Posted June 15, 2013 Just some thought. in the early 2000s SBK guys got away from "canyon dancers" style grip tiedowns because of issues with damage to the throttle tube. Might be something the think about. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Might be something the think about. . I still have one of these from my R1/CBR days. I use now to lift my KLR from the rafters. Used correctly they are great. If you over pull on them then you can do some throttle damage. Used mine for about ten years with no issues. Def clears the fairings and body parts. Soft strap in the middle keeps the tank shiny. You can also use the tie-down shortys to get the same effect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
