    Has anyone seen tie down attachments like the photo for Husky's? Photo is off a Honda front fork, but the concept is the same. Looking for both 2012 TE511 and TE310. These little guys are real handy and the Honda ones sell for $20.

    i prefer these: keep the stress off your forks. let the suspension do its job of sucking up the road bumps

    I make those softwraps for cheap out is some 1" webbing. Loop and tie a knot (a waterknot is the best). They never break and never some apart. I loop mine though the fork and put the tiedown through both loops. Yery handy for full fairing sport bikes and dont scratch the bars on dirtbikes. For further security I changed my tiedown hooks for some cheap carabiners. Cant come off now. Cam.

    I'm with Sceep, but if ya have to use tie-downs, I'd rather use soft hooks instead of something metal on the bike.

    YUP! Those are sweet. I have a set of MSR cam-lock ones, weren't too expensive, and they have soft loops built into the top.

    My neighbor turned me on to those, with soft loop built in, cam-lock, or ratchet, 1.5" wide, from a local sand dune groupie, $20 bucks/pr.

    I wrap my soft ties around the forks above the lower triple clamps. I use tie downs with the soft ties as part of them

    I used to use them, but went to a wheels shoe in the van and loop end straps for the pu
