Here's another view of my home brewed scooter wheel chock system

The advantage of using 2 bys screwed into the plywood sheet is so different sized tires will fit, by simply moving one of the 2 bys. I use a variable speed drill driver to R&R the Phillips head deck screws which fasten the 2 bys to the plywood

It's imperative (IMO) to keep the front wheel straight when chocking. The reason being...when motoring down the road if the front wheel is kept straight and not allowed to move, the straps holding the scoot wont loosen but if the front wheel is able to turn, the turning motion will eventually loosen one or both straps and the scoot or motorcycle you are hauling will list and eventually fall over
