How do you Transport Bike if needed

This is good advice. Never use your handlebars as a tie down attachment point. I always use the fork tubes between the upper and lower triple clamps with soft ties. Another common mistake is compressing the forks. This is not needed. Run your straps straight out to the left and right. This will keep the bike from falling over. No side or center stand needed. Run another strap under the engine straight forward with a soft tie to the frame. This will keep the bike from rocking backward. Run another strap straight backwards with a soft tie to the rear wheel. Done.
