`15 CVO Street Glide Transport Tie Downs
« on: January 03, 2017, 08:52:05 PM »

A dumb question wondering, if anyone can give input on securely attatching the tie downs my S.E.S.G. when transporting, are there any good options to save the paint? Tried a couple ways and not comfortable with on bars or frame down tubes below tank.  Open to any and all input thanks.

Has anyone ever gotten around to making a tie down bracket for the rear as well?

I'm sad to say I've hauled far too many miles, big heavy bikes.  Here is my routine:

Use Soft-Ties on the handle bars and good locking tiedowns on the front.  Then tie the wheel to the wheel chock firmly.

Use soft-ties and go from front down tube sideways.

Put a block behind the back wheel and hold it in place with a bungy cord.

Go from rear foot peg/board mount rearward.

Thats six tiedowns none of which are overly tight.

PS this trailer is for sale $700.

I use a tie down anchor bracket supplied by Kiwi Indian. It does a great job.

I made these to suit the Kuryakyn tie downs I have on the front.
Made 2 set, Wasn't sure which would look better so I Chrome plated one set and got the other set Powder coated to suit the frame. Chrome looked better though.

Very nice Joe, I would buy a set of them tomorrow if you decide to manufacturer.
Sorry but I totally disagree with Rodrunner above. Never good to tie to rubber mounted handlebars, Never good to use tie downs pulling to the rear, this only would pull the bike out of the front chock if the front tie downs fail. Good idea to use six tiedowns for sure, but I just do not think your way is good.
I also have towed bikes, boats, race cars, wrecked cars etc for a lot of miles. Made a living doing it for awhile and sorry to say your way, if a catastrophe were to occur will only do damage to the bike. IMHO.

Had to build a few prototypes to get them right and look as if they were not an add on, these mounts do not stand out and blend in nicely.
Designed to suit my 2012 SG, not sure if they will fit the new frame.

Happy to pass on the blue prints to those that wants to make them for CVO forum members only.
If you know a Laser cutter business that is on the forum maybe they can chime in to help with the Laser cutting to reduce cost. 
L/H and R/H sides have different profiles and bends.
PM me if interested.
