PowerTye1.5in x 6.5ft Ergonomic Locking Ratchet Soft-Tye Straps with Heavy-Duty Latch Hooks - Made in USA - 1,000 lb. Working Load Limit / 3,000 lb. Breaking Strength - Orange/Black (Pair)

Extremely well built, this is my 8th pair of different versions I have bought for bike/ motorcycle, trailer uses. Very happy with these made in USA straps.

This tie downs have all the cool features including soft ties and safety hooks (with spring loaded catches). Our crew has used these to strap down heavy weight cruiser motorcycles for ten of thousands of miles of hauling over several years and many, many trips. I am finally replacing the most heavily worn pair. Keep them lubricated and don't abuse them, and they'll thank you with years of faithful, secure service.

These are some very good straps. I had a set for my Harley and had to get another set for the golf cart. Worth the wait for these, definitely have my business in the future.

Good

These straps are a cut above. They’re of some meaty construction, and the loop attached to one end makes it easy to tie down items where there wouldn’t be space to pass the hooked end without undoing the whole strap (like around motorcycle forks for example).

Bought these to haul 2 street bikes on a cross-country trip and they worked great. The hooks having the clips on them removes the worry of them coming unhooked of they temporarily get slack (as happened to me with a dirt bike one time).The way my trailer is configured the ratchets ended up touching the front fender on both bikes. I removed the fender on one bike and loosened the other (since the front wheel would need to be removed to get the fender completely off the bike) because of the length of the trip. For a shorter trip I would have put a cushion between them and I'm sure it would have been fine.My only complaint is very small: the ratchet mechanisms were a little sticky. It feels like after a few uses (and maybe a little lubrication) they will loosen up a little and work great.

Don’t be fooled—Many companies put “USA” or “American” in their names but their stuff is made in other countries with terrible human rights and environmental records. Worse, sometimes there is not a good quality American-made or free-world option. Not the case here…These are absolute top quality straps, made in USA by your neighbors, and competitively priced. If you need straps you can count on, look no further. Now that I have them, I wouldn’t trust my track bike with anything else. Make a smart choice and support the people trying to do it the right way.

The locking S-Ring prevents the hook from coming off the anchor point when hauling a motorcycle should the straps become loose. When hauling a motorcycle, the front wheel chock should be the primary anchor point. Second anchor point is the front of the motorcycle to keep the bike in the chock and help the bike resist lateral movement. The rear anchor is not as important. It just needs to keep the rear from moving laterally. You want to minimize the amount of suspension compression and just snug the straps enough for a little compression. But some settling can occur and the rear straps can become loose. That's ok. So long as you have locking S-Rings, they will not come off the anchor point and your bike remains secure until you get a chance to check and re-snug them.
