If it were me, I'd take a ride to a dealer and try fitting it in myself.

I wouldn't see why not. I leave 8' for my Road King and have plenty to spare. Looks like the 16FKTH has a 7'7" garage area, with space between the closet and frig, just in case you would need it. With only one bike, you should have it centered anyway.

My dealer gave me a price of $13,600 out the door for a 2017 17fkth with sway and wdh included. Not sure if its a good deal?
Also.. how does this brand hold up? How often does it need reseal? Thanks for any info

Thanks for any info Price is about right, seeing them on RV Trader anywhere from 11k to 18k depending on how much extra is in one ... Kz has a two year warranty bumper to bump an 12 year on the roof, if you take care of it I do not see why it shouldn't hold up. Warranty work is thought your selling dealer so i would shop around for a good one, if you are 150 miles away from home you call Kz Customer service an they direct you to a dealer who will take care of your warranty work ...

How did you attach a wheel chock to the floor? Thanks hi! I did install chokes in my KZ; it's a bigger 5th wheel but i suppose it works the same. You locate a metal beam under the RV and drill all the way into the garage. There are layers, expect a 4 inches sandwich. Use gradually bigger drill bits until you reach the bolt size. Use galvanized nuts & bolt with nylon rim to prevent vibrations from undoing the nut. Use super large washers to spread the stress over a large surface. I planned and measured everything 3 times before drilling. The tricky part is to position the choke where : - it's over a metal beam in the RV garage - the choke is at a position where the motorcycle will fit in the garage. Also, for weight distribution, it's good to be as close as possible to the wheel axles. My garage is 8ft large, i wanted to fit 2 motorcycles with 36" or so handlebars. That gives a little margin and it's even possible to squeeze between. I've bought good chokes at Harbor Freight, they're rock solid, adjustable, and cost just $60 each. I had to drill new holes in the bars so it fits the RV beam location. I had tie-down hooks already set in the RV garage floor so i didn't need to use the chokes rings : that reduces the stress on the chokes nuts and bolts and on the beam. Had zero problems with the whole contraption and did thousands of mile so far. I'll make a quick blog post about it so you can see pictures, stay tuned
