Pitbull system might have to wait until next year. Would it work for a cruiser too?

My father and his buddies have big cruisers so the trailer needed to work for me and him.

Especially with a wedding to plan and a baby on the way....

It is, without a doubt, the BEST transport system that exists. It currently is not available for cruisers. But, the system is flat on the floor - so you could use it for your bike and it wouldn't interfere with another bike.

I can't tell you how many trackdays and races that I've gone to - and everytime I [or someone else] open a trailer there is that little bit of oh my god I hope everything is upright sick feeling before the door opens. With this - NO worries.

Congrats on the trailer. But, I've even ditched the regular chocks and went with sport chocks that hold the bike upright for me while I tie them down. That, and I can take it out of the trailer and use it trackside.

Nice rig. I've got a trailer ordered. Can't wait to get it fabricated. It is the complete opposite of yours. Very minimalist.

No, it won't work for cruisers but it the system that Vator posted looks like a similar set up for the big bikes.

Like Zoomie said, the plate is nearly flush with the floor so it won't interfere if your Dad & friends are using the trailer for their bikes.

Sport chocks? (can you tell I don't know what the heck I'm talking about with this stuff )

I like the idea of being self sufficient. Right now I roll up with my bike in the back of a pick up truck and get my buddies to unload it for me. With this one I can unload it myself. I hate having to ask for help.

baxley or condor chocks. you can use em for either cruisers or sportbikes, and can install mounting plates on the floor so you can take them out

Yep, I love my cheapo Harbor Freight units! I'm thinking about buying a cheap trailer and will probably make a system like the Pit Bull to go with it. Some threaded rod, some spacers, tube steel.... Heck, I'm surprised that HF doesn't already sell something like that for $49.99
