It is suitable for front wheels with tire diameters between 19 inches and 23 inches (482mm - 584mm).
Does this chock replace the need for tie-down straps?
While the chock provides significant stability for the front wheel, it is always recommended to use additional tie-down straps for secure transport of your motorcycle.

Troubleshooting
Motorcycle front wheel does not feel securely locked.
Ensure the tire is fully seated within the chock and that the tire diameter is within the specified 19-23 inch range. Check for any debris that might be obstructing the locking mechanism.
Chock appears unstable on the ground.
Verify that the chock is placed on a completely flat and solid surface. For transport, ensure it is secured to the trailer or van floor using appropriate mounting hardware or tie-downs.
