Specs:
Note: The Biker Bar is designed to secure a motorcycle that is pointed in the direction of travel only.
With B&W's Biker Bar, it's never been easier to secure your motorcycle for travel. Just bolt the latching plate to the floor of your trailer, and clamp the included bar to your bike's frame. Once both components are appropriately mounted, simply drive your motorcycle onto your trailer, over the latching base plate, and the bar will automatically latch into the base. No straps or wheel chocks are needed.
Not only does this motorcycle tie-down system make it fast and easy to connect your bike to your trailer, but it also makes it safer and more secure. Because there are no tie-down straps, there are no buckles or hooks to rub against your bike, potentially scratching your paint or trim. And because the bar attaches to your motorcycle's frame, this system provides more stability than tie-downs alone. In fact, the Biker Bar system is designed not only to secure your bike, but also to create a natural ride for it during trailering. Once hooked up to the latching plate in your trailer, your motorcycle's suspension is effectively linked with the suspension system of the trailer, eliminating undo stress on your bike.
Installation
Installation of the Biker Bar is simple. The bar itself clamps to your bike's tubed frame, just behind the transmission. Be sure to clear any potential obstacles, such as hydraulic lines or wiring harnesses, that could get caught between the clamps and the frame. The clamps on the bar are lined with neoprene to prevent scratches to your bike's frame.
Once you have the bar securely clamped to the frame of your bike, ride the bike onto the trailer to determine the location where you want the bike to attach. Mark that spot on the floor of your trailer so that you can bolt down the latching plate. You will have to drill into your trailer's floor to attach the plate.
The final setup step is to adjust the height of the latching base. Once the base is bolted to the trailer's floor, ride the bike over it until the bar is directly in front of the base. Measure the distance from the middle of the bar to the trailer's floor. Your bike's suspension must be slightly compressed while latched down to appropriately stabilize the bike during transport. So you must remain sitting on the motorcycle while taking this measurement. Once you have this measurement, remove the bar from the bike and place it in the latching base. Adjust the height of the base until the bar is the same distance from the floor as it was when on the motorcycle. The base adjusts in 1/4" increments, so the height may not be exact. As long as the bar is within 1/4" of your initial measurement, setup is complete.

Secure your bike in your trailer quickly and easily with this clamping tie-down system. No straps or chocks needed. Just mount the clamping bar to your bike, drive over the trailer-mounted plate, and your motorcycle will automatically latch in place.Best invention since the light bulb. Installed in 20 mins and loaded the bike in 2 mins. I have seen this product at a bike rally and had to have one. No more straps.... I have experienced $5,500 in damage when my buddies bike fell over onto mine in my trailer that was secured by straps, if I owned a biker bar then I never would have needed to file a claim on my insurance. 255131
Kevin - 01/23/2018I bought three of these to use on a open car hauler type trailer I had made to trailer my three Harleys, two Wide Glides & a Road Glide Ultra. The trailer is 20' long which includes a 30" dovetail. It has two 3500 lb axels and is 82" wide inside fender to fender. The Biker Bar performs as advertised. No need for tie down straps. I trailered these bikes 900 miles from Missouri to Colorado and back, along I-70. I-70 in spots, especially going through Denver can be pretty rough. Lots of dips and bumps across all the overpasses. The Biker Bar held the bikes great with no problems. I used some cheap wheel chocks from Harbor Freight on the front wheels to keep the front wheel from flopping, but found out they were not really necessary when the Biker Bar is adjusted properly. Will not use them on the next trip. The Biker Bar is easy to install, just read the instructions and watch the video etrailer provides. B&W you could make the install a one man job if you provided a 3/16" dia hole in the plates that mount under the trailer. This would allow you to use a temporary screw to hold the plate in place while you drill the holes for two permanent bolts. I used a drywall screw and a fender washer to hold the plate in place. Also the two 5/8" dia bolts that hold the Main plate, are not long enough to go through a 1-1/2" board. I had to buy new bolts an inch longer. Other than that, I really am pleased with the "Biker Bar". 428072

Best money spent. Thought it was too pricey untill I Installed it and used it. Great clamp. 884785
Best money I ever spent! I have three installed in my trailer and trailer the bikes all over. Have trailered 1000 miles nonstop and bikes don’t move easy load and unload. no straps! Just drive on And done remarkable product! 874469
I love the easy set up. However, I had a problem of side shifting. The bar came out of one side of bracket and my bike fell over enroute. Fortunately, I was periodically checking the trailer and damage was minimal to fairing paint. I solved the sliding problem by screwing down 2 pieces of 2x4 on either side of the back tire. I just leave them in place and drive between them when loading. No more problem. 865815
We are ready to go Toy hauling with Bikes locked in place . Many thanks to etrailer. 865779
If you trailer your bike... this is a MUST HAVE! I had the front wheel chock and straps before I got the Biker Bar, sure wish I knew about this before. This thing is amazing! Easy to install and setup. We went to Sturgis last year and people would walk by my trailer and ask What is that and Where did you get it. 100% satisfied with this product! Ditch the straps.com is the website and you really do DITCH The Straps! 809515
Bought the biker bar and it’s a great product. I have purchased from ETrailer a few times and have always had excellent results. 799331
Installed easily on my new enclosed trailer, you will need to make a trip to Home Depot to find some bolts, washers, etc. I have not taken it out on a road-trip yet. I am planning on buying a bluetooth camera to install inside the trailer to watch the bike during trips. 790647
Great Product. I have two installed in my RV and two install on other trailers. Easy to install and remove to store away. Bikes stay put and I never have to worry about tie-downs coming loose. 785404

Great product. Excellent knowledge and help from the staff ordering this product. 764900
To be honest I wasn’t quite sure if I totally believed there was a tie down system that didn’t require straps but after installing your system I drove my bike in and felt it lock down. I had to pull my trailer to my buddies and show them what amazing product it is. When I got home I order another one and just installed today 757128
I love the B&W Biker Bar. We have pulled my HD Ultra Limited in an enclosed trailer behind our RV over 28 states so far. It loads and unloads in minutes, and has never moved at all, even through several full-brake lockdowns and all of the potholes that the northeast US could throw at us! It is a well-designed product. My only question now is what do I do with all of those old straps I used to have to use [Thumbs Up] 747331
I installed it in my toy hauler. Installation was as described, about 1 hr. I have not tried the bike yet, that is why only 4 stars, will update soon. 745120

I ordered a biker bar a few weeks back. Somehow it never made it to my house although it said it was delivered. I was immediately contacted by Etrailer and was pleasantly surprised with the kindness and willingness to help me figure out what happened. I now have my biker bar and couldn’t be happier. Will definitely be doing more business with Etrailer! 725387
Finally can write review after 600ml trip. Rock solid! Bike becomes part of trailer. Front wheel dosen't even budge.Had to have underside plates replaced because supplied one's too small for my trailer,(wielding shop fixed that). Pat at etrailer was great! Would and have recommended. 721986
I just bought my second set for a few friends . Been using biker barz for 3 years now and done multiple 2000 mile trips and they dont skip a beat. I recently just trailered my bike to the dealership and the whole service staff came out to see such a great device and were gonna switch there whole trailer fleet over to them after they have had multiple instances of damaged bikes cause of loose or broken straps or bikes just secured wrong. i also bolt mine down to my shop floor in the winter and gaurentees that it doesnt fall over during winter storage . A MUST if you value your bike and piece of mind. 718580
The only reason I didn't give it a 5 star rating. is because I havent had a chance to install it yet. But I will say this, it is built a lot better than I thought from watching the videos. 715929
Great, solid product! Trailered my road king to Fla, last October and the bike was secure the whole way down. The front wheel was in the same position at trips end. 711996
The Biker Bar works great.. once you find the right spot to mount it. Kick stand can be a little difficult to put up 711137
