We are looking at a DRV Fullhouse. Will be hauling a BMW GSA. I'm trying to learn about all the wheel chock options. I'm leary about drilling through the floor. There are 2 30 gallon gasoline tanks underneath. While doing research I came across this idea. https://wheelchockpro.com/
Anyone tried it or had any experience? Thanks

I would think your mounting point for a condor would be ahead of your fuel tanks.

I use Baxley Sport Chocks for my BMW 1600 GTL, used them for several Harleys, Goldwings and even a Burgman scooter. Never mounted them to the floor, just rolled into the chick and strapped the bikes at front and rear. http://www.baxleycompanies.com/Sportchock.html

On my rig (Voltage 3950) the fuel tanks are well behind where the chocks are bolted down.

Thanks, but I can't take all the credit. I got the idea from another guy on here a few years ago. His is a bit different, but the concept is the same. Our toyhauler has the rear wall that pivots into place when we don't have the bikes on board, so we needed something that is easily removable.

I have used the Pit-Bull restraints for several years for three bikes in the back (sport bikes). Work great, like BigDog I don't regret drilling one bit.

With the Pit-Bull, there is no pressure on the suspension. I can leave the bikes in the trailer with no issues on the forks or seals.

I got tired of tripping over wheel chocks. Now I tie the back side of the front wheel down to the nearest D-ring using a tie down.

This is how I have mine set up. As you can see nothing is permanently mounted. The aluminum plate is slotted and just slips over the D-rings in the floor. The Condor chocks butt up against the aluminum plate, and sit over two bolts that protrude through the plate. Then tiedowns hook to the D-rings. Works great and gives me a clean floor.

Don't take life too seriously, it's not permanent.

That's about the most worthless web site ever.

I use this tie down system.

I made one that's similar but not as easy to take in/out as the Beast, need to get one of those for when I have more than one bike. If only one dirtbike then I put it across the back and tie it to the wall using a cheap Harbor Freight chock for the front wheel. atwowheelguy looks like you're all set up for a dual sport ride with your Countdown roll chart holder on your plated KTM!

If you could find a pic that would be great. The unit has 2 30 gallon fuel tanks underneath and may be a pain to drill. Thanks again,

If you set it up right, you'll have nothing permanent on the floor. You use some aluminum plate, the standard floor tie downs, and the Condor chock. You don't have to drill any holes in the floor or install any additional tie downs. If you're interested I can dig up some old pics and other posts that show how it's done.

Thanks for the reply's. The Condor idea looks pretty stable. I like the small foot print of the trailer adapter that would stay on the floor.
