    Does anyone have a pit bull trailer restraint for a reasonable price in good condition?

    Does anyone have experience with the T-Rex restraint system?

    What about other systems? I have seen the one by Trackday Mag, Pit Bull and T-Rex.

    Thanks

    I like the Pit Bull restraints its the price thats slowing me down 300 per set and i would like to have 2. T-Rex has theirs for 99 but Pit-Bull seems better plus i cant find reviews on the T-Rex. Thanks for the replies and you guys sure you dont want to donate to charity LOL.

    Trev seems like i saw your RV and trailer Sunday on I-20 heading to Bham but i could have been mistaken. I was out for a Sunday ride from Bham to GA and back with a few twisties.

    I'd throw my vote to Pitbull. I (just) watched the video on the T-rex system. It looks quick and easy, but I'd feel better securing my bike by the rear axle rather than the spools.

    Agreed plus i was wondering if the part that you turn would loosen up on long trips

    Pitbull is where it's at. They come with a price tag, but they are worth every penny...

    I second bitmap317 in regards to securing the bike at the spools.

    Baxley wheel chocks. I love all things pit bull but the trailer restraint is a pain in the ass compared to the Baxley. Plus Baxley can be used everywhere with any bike.

    Pit Bull. Worth the money and super easy. Their stuff lasts forever.

    You'll wonder why you didn't get the TRS sooner once you have it.

    The Baxley chock is awesome, I kept one of mine around for multiple reasons including hauling a single bike in the truck, garage use, hauling a bike I don't have pins for, etc.

    I find the Pit Bull as easy to use though and no straps so I put bikes closer together and not waste any floor space around them or have to step over the straps. Using Baxley's I'd have to have many more tie down points in my toyhauler and it would be a struggle to put 3 bikes in it easily.

    There's only 2 bikes in this shot but I routinely haul 3 with my buddies coming to the track with me.
