Canyon dancer 2

I got a $20 gift certificate from my local dealer as an anniversary present on a bike I bought there. Decided to order a Canyon Dancer 2 from them but didnt know the size so I emailed Canyon Dancer direct and got an answer. They also suggested using a towel over the grips if you have soft grips.
 
I used these when I bought my Busa in February. They worked great for the 600+ mile trip home. I was also concerned about the bar ends, so I wrapped a washcloth around them and had no problems. The cups left some impression marks on the grips, but they worked out in a day or so.

Also, the strap across the tank didn't touch anything on my Gen II.

Come on now, plastic doesn't mar steel bar ends.
Now that is funny.... GM said the same thing right before we had to warranty several hundred thousand transmissions with plastic bushings that ate up cast iron side gears...

I prefer not to put anything on my handlebars.. a good wheel chock just seems a better bet.. (I have the HF $30 one and 2 straps off the passenger peg mounts)

B - Is that all you do to strap your bike down? I use the Condor Chocks but I strap the bars and pegs, out of paranoia i guess.

Thousands and thousands of miles never an issue.... a lot of guys tow like this... If I have a second set of straps I will add a backup but never had any issues..

Looks good.

What make of chock is that?
 
That is the $30 harbor freight unit.. I bought 3 of them and gave one to 99busa and another two serve on a trailer and one on my bike hoist..

I think I will pick one up. I have 2 Condor chocks but I want a 3rd so I can load a single bike without moving the mounts around.

Here is his email to me >



Typically, sport bike bars are not over 32 inches wide. The standard Bar-Harness II fits bars up to 32 inches wide but is a little forgiving and will probably go another 2 inches, so the 32505 is the one to buy. If your tie down points are at floor level you can use the X-Wide 36505 but I don’t think that will be necessary.

Please be aware that any bike that has long (1-1/2 inch +) bar end weights should not be tied down as tightly. The small bolt that holds the weights on may bend. If you trailer your “Busaâ€￾ a lot you may want to go to a shorter weight or just take an allen wrench with you and spin off the weights when you tie the bike down. Simple to do, either way.
