The tie-downs for your application will vary on the type of bike you own. Explore our tie-down bundles to determine the most suitable option for your needs.

Cam buckles use friction created by the strap as it passes through a spring-loaded, cam-shaped buckle to hold the strap in place. Ratchet straps operate in much the same manner, but with a ratchet buckle to progressively tighten the strap. Comparatively, ratchet buckles require less effort to use, as the tightening is done with a mechanism, instead of manpower.

You will need three tie-down straps to secure your bike properly to a MotoTote—two for the front and one for the rear. The front tie-downs hold the bike in place and provide stability/support, while the rear tie-down prevents the rear from jumping out of the tire track.
