+1 on Kurveygirl.

I don't think you would fail tech since my Honda didn't come with a cotter pin and they never failed me. I did decide to drill and add one later on my own.

Besides, you need stuff from her you just didn't know it.

Spare Dzus fasteners, safety clips, angled valve stems(much easier to check air pressure, and you will be doing this a LOT more)

After adding it up I saved 96.00 for a few scratches on it (used six times) thats after I bought the pins for my bike and everything so ya, thats a few bucks more and I get a whole day at BHF's so Hell yes I would do it again.

But the restraint system is 279.00 plus then you have to buy the pins also so its like 375.00. I paid $250.00 total, so actually I saved more. At tleast thats the way I see it you dont get the pins with the unit when you buy it you have to buy it seperetely.

Great way to transport the bike. I have the STS system in the trailer as well and if I have to take just one bike the pitbull is the easier of the 2.

I think you can find them new for the price you paid (at least you could last year) but a used one is just as good imo.

The Pit Bull price of $280 includes the appropriate pins for whatever bike you order it for. I have three of them set up in my trailer and they are worth every penny.

You can get a discount off of retail by purchasing these through NESBA BTW.

When you buy new for the $279 price, it includes a set of pins.

I was confused about that too. I bought two of these last year and until I talked with a sales man, I thought it was $279 plus pins but it's not.

John,

I'm close to pulling the trigger on a couple of Pit Bull restraint systems. How do you purchase these through NESBA?

Thanks.
