Something you dont see every day

Well my Baxley chock came in.  A++++ for them and their products.  Simpley awesome.  Anyways put the chock on the trailer and loaded the bike up for the first time.  Now if you want to turn heads this is one way to do it.  We took the Z28 for a test drive down the highway to see how she pulled the bike.  Not too bad.  Damn the weight of the busa sags the suspension.   Anyways if you see me on the way to my next base dont be shy to wave.

Your hitch is way overloaded. Looks like you have class 1 hitch and tongue weight must be no more then 200 lb. Looking on your picture it looks like 400lb at least.
Be careful and check your hitch mounts all the time.

I also pull my trailer with my car and scared to death loosing it on highway.

I think you can move your busa all the way to the rear of the trailer. Weight would be distributed more evenly. Bolt down you Baxley. One bolt would be enough.
Just my .02

You should move the chock further back to take some weight of the tongue like Vic said.

Just put a block in front of the chock and bolt down the block and the chock. The maximum tongue weight is only supposed to be 10% of the gross weight rating of the trailer...also they are designed to carry 60% of the load in front of the axle 40% rear of it

Thanks guys. I will move her back and see how she pulls.

Z28 pulling color coordinated Busa looks killer. I `d loose the gate, another 2-3 MPG economy.

Put the weight of the bike over the trailer axle. Just by looking at the trailer, it's tongue heavy when empty.

Well, you just answered the question of can I pull my Busa with my Camaro.

How much do these Baxley Chocks cost?

Just received mine a couple weeks ago. Haven't used it yet, but was planning on using it on the trailer to Miami for Memorial Day weekend. But, since I'm having electrical issues, it doesn't look too good right now.

too far forward, and make sure your straps aren't touching your plastics. If you can't use towells or something to keep from rubbing the paint.

All of your straps should be pulling the bike forward into the chock. It looks like our rear strap is pulling it backward.
