    Very interesting. Back in the late 70s. We used to load 11 sometimes as many as 20 dirt bikes. Every Sunday. Head to the Tillamook burn Oregon. A very big place to ride. Learned to use ropes. Stepdad was in the navy. That bar is a great way to secure the bike. Thank you for sharing

    I purchased a pair of these 5+ years ago as a gift for my husband! He installed them in our toy hauler. He's trailered our bikes thousands of miles to bike events without one incident! Cannot brag about these enough! Worth every penny! By the way, it only works on motorcycles with full frames. So, the Indian Scout was traded for an HD Sport Glide to accommodate.

    Hey Ty, I got a question for you. Does your rear brake line run along the outside top of the frame? The reason I ask is that is the situation for my 2012 Street Glide. I'm worried that when tightening the biker bar, the right side clamp will damage the brake line. Which would be a real problem.

    • @TyFromTennessee
      @TyFromTennessee  2 года назад +1

      That’s a great question. I don’t think it does but I will double check. I do know that the clamp to the Biker Bar doesn’t kink any cables that I’m aware of. Let me see what I can find out for you! Thanks for watching Todd!
