Highroller Stay Lock Tie Downs
Sean Finley | October 19, 2021
Motorcycle ties downs may not be the most exciting item you will buy for motorcycling, but quality tie downs can save your precious motorcycle and transport vehicle from damage. My friend Brian Cornelius was transporting a couple of borrowed cruiser motorcycles several years ago when a bump jolted the bikes enough to that the straps unlatched from the hook on the trailer and both bikes tipped over. He came up with the idea to add a carabiner hook on one end and a built-in soft tie on the other end to limit scratching on the bike and make it virtually impossible for either end to come unattached. These features are now common from other companies, but Brian’s Pacific Powersports was the first company to offer this to the motorcycle market.
Don’t skimp on tie-downs! The Highroller Stay Lock Tie Downs are some of the best in the business.

We can’t think of any negative about these straps. They will secure just about anything better than traditional straps and the ratcheting version works much better than cheap straps. |
Go ahead and hit all the bumps you want, because your motorcycle isn’t going anywhere with these carabiner hooks.
Highroller Stay Lock Tie Downs | Rider Analysis
Brian proudly showed off his new straps and gave me a set to try several years ago, and I’ve used them ever since. I still have that original set and have bought multiple sets for my van and trailer. I also added some of the ratchet strap versions to my kit for securing UTVs and other items that need to be snugged down extremely tight. The carabiner end makes it easier to strap bikes when you don’t have to worry about it coming unattached in addition to staying attached if the bike gets rocked from hitting bumps in the road.
The soft-ties prevent scratches and also make attachment simple, and you have more options as to where to attach them.
The built-in soft-tie works great on dirt bike handle bars but also provides strapping options for other types of bikes. For example, I have found that ADV and street bikes can be strapped around the forks and lower triple clamp to avoid the body work. The lower strapping point can also provide a more secure angle for some vehicles.
