ATTENTION:

Goldstrike Tie Down Brackets are designed to assist you when working to stabilize a Goldwing. The person doing the job is responsible for the their own safety and the security of the motorcycle.
Goldstrike Tie Down Brackets are not designed to be the only devise used when stabilizing a Goldwing. They should be used in combination with a front wheel chock and rear tie down straps.

TIPS FOR USING THE GOLDSTRIKE TIE DOWN BRACKETS

Use high quality tie down straps that are in good condition. Read and understand their load ratings.
Use tie down straps that are correct for the job. Cam or ratchet are both acceptable.
Secure the front wheel straight ahead and prevent forward movement. A wheel chock can be helpful.
Locate appropriate mounting points on the trailer. The mounting points should be in front of the motorcycle’s front axle and behind the front of its tire and evenly spaced 24 – 36 inches wide. FIG.4
Do not overtighten the straps. The front suspension should only compress enough to keep the straps tight. One or two inches of suspension compression is enough.
Stabilize the rear of the motorcycle. Remove the saddlebag guard covers and connect tie down straps hooks to the guard tube. Secure the other end to floor of the trailer. FIG.3
Do not overtighten the straps. The rear suspension should compress no more than one inch.
