Snow bike tie down

I have used superclamps on the rear and tie downs on the front. You do not need to pull hard on the tie downs so compression on the forks is minimal.
you can also use a fork block on the front as well. they are like $8. or a 2x4 between the tire and fender.
I use these.

They say those won't work with a two stroke pipe. I'm looking for something else as well.
Unsure what you mean. Ramp seems like a good idea but are you saying i have to go forward to get out of it? Do you use yours with a trailer? I'm only gonna haul in the back of my truck. I really like the looks of this carry system but i ruled it out awhile ago. Maybe prematurely? FMF Fatty on my cr500.
Easiest thing for helping the ski out to hold up the machine on it's own no matter what track your running is two chunks of a 2 x 6 with a lanyard string .
So after you load the machine tip the machine a bit to one side kick one of the 2 x 6 under the out side bar and tip on to it and kick the other under the other outside bar , fits perfect .
Now somebody need to take that to the next step and make it out of a good plastic that you can bump stop the ski onto .

So with wheels in the summer I put a half cut log to roll in and out of mount.... using a procurcuit pipe. Now when I had a fmf Fatty it will go in with the arms in the down position... In the winter with a track I use a trailer.... So this will be my first year trying... at first glance it appears the pipe will clear...I can update with photos when I am back in town. It might be a big pain to pull it back out with the ski over a ramp to make the pipe clear. This is using my 300.. I am pretty sure though with the kit it is a little higher and clearance should be good... the other option is to run a strap to each of the foot pegs and cinch them down.... the strap should attach directly under the pegs,,,Same concept and cheaper

I really like those Risk Racing Lock-N-Loads. Been thinking about getting a pair for the back of my truck.
For a 4 stroke they are a no brainer and super sturdy for my 2 stroke I like them also just a little for love is needed to get them to fit depending on the pipe. I live on some pretty horrible roads now there is no more stopping and readjusting.

The question is are they wide enough to let me fit my ski with TS wheels kit through them. If they don't I would hate to have to remove the wheels to fit them through.
Are your wheels wider than the foot pegs? No brainer from there.

I've tried till the month of Sunday to figure out how to make those risk racing tie downs work on our units but the belly pan won't allow the drive threw without creating a complicated process .
I seen a set up several years back for enclosed trailers that when you drove the bike or bikes in you reached up and pull down a scissored frame that used velcro straps around the grips , it's a quick process and made way more sense than the wall tracks or floor tie downs in an enclosed .
I have searched for this product and have not been able to find it ?

I installed these on my bike and attach the ratchet tie down strap to them. Work well. http://pitposse.com/potilo.html

There was a company with something similar to those lock and loads, but it laid down out of the way, and seemed really solid, should be able to find them if you look. product was mostly metal.

I bought the lock and load system. Works great in the truck with wheels on the bike. Once I put the track on the bike sits to high and the pegs go over instead of into the jaws. Has anyone else run into this problem? I guess I'll have to build some sort of removable spacer.
