Looks good, but do you have a brake on the trolly to stop bike pushing it forwards as you ride bike into chock?
@KTMPappy4 күн бұрын
Really good question. I have threaded holes at the bottom of each ramp. I just thread in bolts and roll the trolly wheels up to it to hold in place. when the bike is on the trolly I just remove the bolts and winch it up.

@KTMPappy Жыл бұрын
Good question Thomas. For holding the trolly in place while driving your bike on it. I drilled and threaded a hole at the bottom of the channel for the trolly and put a bolt (about 3" long) in it. When I rolled the trolly up against it, the bolt would keep it from rolling forward. When the bike is secured I just remove the bolt.

Sorry for the very late reply. With the winch mounted on the cart it doesn't require an idler pully because the cable doesn't move. It simply winds up on the winch and moves the cart. That's the advantage of mounting it on the cart versus a stationary mount on the the rails.
@williamhill67232 жыл бұрын
The wench being mounted on the cart loader you must have a idler pully mounted on the trailer & also on the truck, also how do you unload your wench is resealable. Raising the front of your guide tracks on your truck & trailer would cause the pully to want to roll back out when unloading, that would put tension on your wench cable to alow your reverse mode to control the unloading ,

I made template of windshield's bottom, then transfered that bottom shape from template to above vent with no damage! It cut shield height considerably but I like it better. Several side cover plastic pins were broken off, so pins needed repairs. It's an 88' an now the smoothest running engine I've ever seen. I can balance a coin on it side on it's running motor, amazing! GW is old, but I think it's just a wonder of technology! Why doesn't Honda upgrade this bike an bring it back! I had a venture too! Great bike as well! You got me bet on price though! I got him down to $2000, but no lower, then he said $1800 if I pick it up before holiday, so I did!
