    Default Freewheeler rear tie down

    I am going with some friends to the Lone Star rally and towing the 2017 Freewheeler in a enclosed trailer. The front tire will be in the rack and I want to know how to strap down the rear axle. I guess crisscross the straps thru the tires, I looked for hooks like the Tri Glide has on their axle. I take it the freewheeler didn't get any hooks. Pictures appreciated too. Thanks Folks

    I strap the front tire to the chock, Yes, even a condor. I like to put a strap on both sides on the front pulling left and right pulling to the front.

    The rear I put a strap around each tire and criss cross pulling slightly to the rear.

    Probably a little late, but these brackets may be what your looking for. There's one on each side. A bit awkward to get to in my opinion. This is on my '21 Freewheeler.
