Question:

Tow-Rax Removable Wheel Chock w/ Wood Screws - 6-1/2inch Wide Tires - Tubular Steel - Chrome There is not a listed maximum weight listed for this product. Most show what the maximum vehicle weight that can be used with a curtain product, but this product does not, or i somehow missed seeing it. Please let me know what the maximum rated vehicle weight is for this item. Thank you in advance!

Expert Reply:

The Tow-Rax Removable Wheel Chock # TWSPWC does not have a specific weight capacity because it does not actually carry any of the weight of the motorcycle. The weight of the motorcycle will be supported by the floor of the trailer, the anchor points for the tie downs and the tie down straps used to secure it.

For a set of motorcycle tie-downs I would recommend the # EM34410 as they have plenty of capacity at 4,000 lbs max capacity.

I attached review videos for both products.
