Trailering a Concours 14
« on: January 01, 2013, 05:09:31 PM »
Read do not tight strap handlebars down but instead through triple tree. Can someone write about how to secure front end through triple tree without hurting plastic?

If you keep the angle less than 45 degrees then the straps should be clear of the plastic.   You are only using the lower tree.  I would suggest using a Baxley chock and securing it to your base if possible.
