Has anyone ever hauled motorcycles with with these? I have only read one review where a guy said he used them for a motorcycle.

I have them on my F250 superduty and hauled a pallet of brick in the bed of the truck strapped tight to these and they did great!!!

Each hook is rated for 1000 pounds. Have never hauled anything with weight with them, would use them as an alternate tie down point and not the only one to keep anything with that much weight secure. Make sure your straps have enough weight ratio to haul a motorcycle, biggest mistake I seen when most tie any kind of a load down.

Not really sure i can help with this one. I have mine (2 pair) on my motorcycle. One pair in each bag. They hit really hard!!

I haven't tried them on a motorcycle, if you drive a Honda you can probably hear them, if you drive a Harley, you will not hear them

I am using these on a harley road king. I have them set up with a small compressor and also set up to use a hand pump if need to.

I personally would never ask any make chock to hold up a motorcycle without some sort of back up support. The last thing I ever want to do is drop my bike. Just my opinion.

I keep them on my car all the time. You have to have a special wrench, so I guess I don't worry. Actually, I never thought about someone stealing them. Love them and they worked great for a top car carrier.

I'd like to use these to lock the zipper on my motorcycle saddle bags so I don't need to remove them from the bike. Do you think they will hold zippers together?

Only had a chance to use them twice on my motorcycle. They worked great. No snags or falling apart yet. They did rinse out the dirt very easily.

How this helps - I ordered 2 and mounted them to my topcase of my motorcycle. I filled them with 93 octane for my long motocycle trips.

If its really "we", you shouldn't need these. If it is one of you at a time, a 70 pounder is a bit much for many people so an aid is useful. On that point, these things are very good. They won't reach to the ground bit they will reduce the lift to maybe knee level, and after that they are idiot proof. Even for someone who seems to think an 80 inch vehicle is a good idea.

they can actually I have used them in my motorcycle without fairings I'm distrust you sir seems to be holding up really well, I have taken rides when the bike would get all wet and these things seem to hold up just fine.

i mounted left and right bags to my electric chopper bike, set the bike off, not alot of storage, i did it for the looks, there well built and easy to install, there quick release so you don't have to un-buckle every time, you'll love them if heat from your pipes is not an issue, try them you can always send them back, mine fit perfect, wish i could post a picture, hope this is of some help, good luck

Sorry about the long delay responding.I wondered about that myself before I bought them. I didn't understand why they were twisted until I got them. Now I have three different strength straps sets there all twisted and they work great. I use them on handlebars and frames for motorcycles, atv's, and lawn equipment. I used them in conjunction with quick cinch hook straps. I hope this helped.

Hey Hank I didn't check the balance but they seem to tow fine. I took them out of the box and put them on and put over a hundred miles on them. My buddy paid a little over twice as much at a store here in town and has had no problems. Hope this helps.

They are great for riding a "mountain bike" on pavement. Nice and smooth and quiet. They are very light and thin though, so off road use should be limited to well groomed trails. Rocks, thorns, or any other sharp terrain would be a killer.

You got me there Barry, I really couldn't say. I've used mine exclusively for my trolling motor and cant tell you how it would handle the load you need. They are a nice battery for my particular use.
