Once the plates are bolted to the underside with four 9/16" bolts, the mount can be removed in just a minute by removing the two 5/8" bolts and leaves a flat surface to use for other purposes....

You don't even have to ride it in.  I was able to just push it in the mount/lock.  So much easier than messing with straps....trying not to rub paint, trying to not suppress the forks to the point you blow a seal yet tight enough the bike doesn't bounce lose, etc. etc.  And....a hell of a lot quicker! :2vrolijk_21:

Pretty sure thats what happened to mine yesterday. Didnt compress the forks enough and the constant jerking yanked the strap from the ratchet.



Excuse the mess. On our last leg of out trip back home. Lol

Really sorry that happened.  When those things happen and make their mark, it's always way more painful to the owner than it looks to others.   It's kind of like going down....there's two groups, those that have and those that will.  Thankfully, you didn't do any more damage than that cuz we've seen the bad luck of a few others on this forum.

You have the full size garage in your TH.  I can see with this mount where it's straight up and down and no straps where you'll have a lot more "usuable" space that with the traditional tie down type.

Got an estimate today from the moco. 2k for bag and speaker enclosure installed.

My son is ppg certified. He shot the antique gunstock with their camera to get a spray-up formula and guess what we discovered......it spit out the code for the candy root beer. 😮

Far be it for me to ever suggest that the moco would keep the same color but just change the name to make it more "special" 🤔 Mentioned it to the service and parts guys and they just kinda smiled.

Tints are coming tomorrow to do a match up. We will soon find out it thats truly the case. He said most likely the difference may just be in the amount of pearl coats needed. Its a tri-coat color with a black base.

Now I see why you sold the Bushtec you got a bigger trailer. You can't go wrong with Biker bar had a buddy that hauled his Harley behind the cab of his semi truck. He had a ramp he would attach in front of the fifth wheel plate where the Biker bar type rig was bolted down. He would ride up the ramp stop and his system required him to shove a pin through two brackets one on each side of the frame.  Bike rode side saddle. Scared me to pieces every time I saw him do it.  Drove it off by attaching the ramp on the opposite side.  I believe he had a machine shop make his back in the early eighties. Took his bike all over America with him.

Jim there are a few pics of the exterior in this thread but a few people have asked when I'm going to post pics of the interior.  I'll get some interior pics posted this evening.

I just bought the same exact setup as yours same truck I believe F350 DRW and the Momentum 376th I have a new Harley Classic Ultra and just bought the bar also should be here Friday, have a question did you have any problems drilling the holes in the Momentum to put the Biker Bar in? Also have you traveled with it and had any issues also? I want to make sure I get it done right the first time so my bike is secure and safe.....really appreciate any insight.



Install is done.  The bike doesn't touch anything (except where the bar clamps to the frame).....room on all sides.  And very easy to ride in and lock in.

I just got my Biker Bars in today looking forward to installing them in my trailer. A friend of mine has 1 and really likes it. Take a look at them and maybe the CVO members can get a group price from the factory.

Wish I would have seen this before the last Sturgis trip.  Spent 45 mins strapping both bikes in & out of the wheel chocks so I wouldn't scratch them. I'd be in for a group by, need 2.

To JCZ; I’ve got a 328M Grand Design Toyhauler.
How did you access the underside if your RV to fasten the plates? Did you cut through the layers of underbelly stuff to get to the floor?
Thanks, COB
