Hey,
I bought some straps from Steadymate. It has been the best product I have used to date. I take my bike to the cottage and overall have been very happy with their products and service.

Well dear, some years ago I used to have a 500cc Triumph and when we used to go on holiday to Europe, I would put it on a small road trailer which had 2 vertical metal supports to which I strapped the bike.
There must be something much more modern available nowadays – ask at a reputable garage that specializes in motorbikes, they will know!

There’s always the fancy and expensive ways, but I’ve had bikes for 10 years and I’ve never had a problem using a flatbed trailer and 4 strong, heavy duty tie downs
My son just completed a trip with a trailer he convered. Contact him by email at the following address and I’m sure he’ll explain how and what he did. I have a picture of him with his trailer and bike mounted that I’d send to you if I had your email address.

They sell wheel chocks that bolt to the trailer and secure the front wheel. Tie-downs are also a must have. This site has some good information about options:

The best way to transport your motorcycle is on two wheels. Ride it. My Harley is ridden over 20,000 miles a year.
real simple either if you buy a closed in or open trailer, take and weld or bolt through each corner of the floor if you bolt through put a ten inch piece of metal stock on both ends meaning inside and underneath, then take and place one each in the middle where a strap down will go over your seat that takes care of all the strapping points now if you want buy and or make a front tire stop holder for you scoot with holes through to put a lock through to secure that scoot of yours in case you stop for a brew and start talking about you put in the trailer, also it only costs about $99.00 to have a alarm installed in the trailer of do what I did went to target and bought one of those sensor alarms when someone enters your driveway and hook it up to a conversion box dc ac with a battery that will only run you about $75 plus you have the key pad with you in case of intrusion, keep the sunny side up
Go to E-Bay motors when page loads on the left side close to the bottom go to Other Vehicles click on trailers when that loads in the search bar enter Motorcycle Trailers There are many to choose from
