FIY, I hauled a CB550, tailgate down, with only 2 straps (each side of the handle bars) so if you can find ANY way better than that, you'll be good to do. This CB550 was hauled across Deals Gap & NC28 at "I wanna get home now" speeds in a Dodge Dakota w/ heavy duty (I think it has bricks instead of shocks) suspension.

Excellent advice here thanks.
The purpose of me going is to handle the driving duties, my co-worker is not a confident driver and
does not want to
cannot deal with a UHAL plus towing her car.
I like the eye hooks & straps, or side rails and straps, so I don't have extra hardware to ship back.
I would forgo the sidestand, I hate leaning my bike on it it my garage (I set it on a 3/4" block).
For $15 trailering it would be an option, if she would now drive her car .vs having me tow it.
I'll let a truck co-packer hang on to my pit-bull in case it needs to go in.
As it turns out another co-worker is leaving to go camping down that way so I may get bumped,
pissah, I'll end up abusing myself in some far more self benificial way.
