Canyon Dancer II Tiedown Strap Extender
by J. Rex Brown

Hauling a motorcycle with a fairing can be a real pain. Tie down straps will slice through the fiberglass and maul a perfectly nice looking bike in minutes.

Canyon Dancer Bar Harness II
The Canyon Dancer cures this problem. It basically extends the attachment points to clear your fairing. Padded sections of the Canyon Dancer slide over your hand grips and adjust for different width bikes. Instead of connecting your tiedown straps to the handlebars, you hook them to the loops on the end of the Canyon Dancer. It makes most any bike easier to haul- but especially those where the handlebars are difficult to get at.

They're very well made– heavy nylon with double-stitched reinforcements. The "socks" are sort of a soft padded material to lessen the shock on your hand grips. These can be used on a wide variety of motorcycles, but aren't recommended for cruisers and dirt bikes with handlebars wider than 32".

And no, I'm not quite sure why they call it that.
