Its a quality product for sure. I bought multiple bases so I could install in a flatbed trailer as well. Just take the bolts out at the top and use it on the flatbed if wanted. Piece of cake.
I love not having straps all over. I have been all over the USA with my bike in place with zero problems. Initially I was pulling over all the time just to go peek at it and make sure it was still up....lol

I did it in ours. I did not drop the tanks. I'm 5'7", not huge arms but flexible. And I did it but could not see very well while underneath so installing the plates underneath was almost all by feel. I centered it (only 1 bike) and measured so it lands the front wheel 3" from the forward wall.
Underneath and starting from the front, I detached the underbelly cover to expose the top side of the forward fuel tank. It is not easy to just "roll" the stuff rearward out of the way. Once exposed, I verified nothing critical was in the way. The insulation will be somewhat in the way, I don't remember how bad it was. Then from inside the garage, I drilled the holes. The reflective foil and insulation will get caught in the bit, so try to keep it out of the way. I had my wife stay in the garage while I was underneath holding the plates up. She then snugged the bolt so it would hold the plate up to the floor. I then screwed the plates to the underside of the floor. This is where I mostly could not see. I did measure to make sure I was as square as possible. Lastly, replaced all the underbelly covering.
I too thought about dropping the tank but I decided it was going to be more work for me since I did not have all the jacks, etc, to drop the tank. It was also half full and I had no where to transfer the fuel.
When not using the BikerBar, I adapted rubber plugs to cap the holes. I have used the BikerBar in the 351M many times and it is great. I've used it for thousands of miles on a utility trailer. The bike is very stable and have never worried about it coming loose.2019 Momentum 351M, Disc Brakes, Roadmaster Slipper Springs/shocks

Great feedback, thanks. You and GD351M seem to have the underbelly liner below the fuel tank, my tanks are below the underbelly. Appears to only have 4 bolts to drop it. But as both of you indicated, i may be able to open the underbelly and reach up to where the brackets go without dropping the rear tank. It looks like the bottom two brackets will be about mid-point of the rear tank.

I placed e-tracks on my garage floor. Used 1”x8 stainless screws every 8” or so. Carpet covers nicely when not hauling. No rip hazard, easy adapting for any mounting needs
