Pretty cool idea for dirt bikes.

I would not attempt to hold the FJR fatty upright by the foot pegs though for a couple of reasons.

One, the foot pegs are mounted into a relatively lightweight alloy casting,

Two because the bitch weighs 600 lbs., and

Three because you'll be holding the bike down low near the tire contact point. As the weight of the bike above the pegs sways from side to side it will be able to exert more than it's own weight on those pegs due to the leverage.

In fact, due to the last reason, I'm not sure I like the idea all that much on a dirt bike either.

It's pretty easy to run a pair of tie downs through the lower triple clamp on most dirt bikes.
