Rigging a utility trailer for camping/Wing towing

I am wrapping up work on a 6 x 12 Utility trailer which I converted for camping (bed, tables, porti-pot, electric) and now I am installing a wheel chock for my 84 GL1200A.



I have installed a Pingel WC650 Removable chock. Does anyone have a suggestion for the locationon the bike forthe Front Tie down straps? The most accessible area is around the engine crash cage, but I would prefer to compress the front suspension if at all possible.

I wrap my tie down strap around the bottom tripple tree. (The bottom clamps that hold the forks to the steering support) This will allow you to compress the front suspension.

I actually use a nylon soft strap with a loop on each end around the tripple tree and hook my tie down strap hook through the soft strap loops.

That was the original plan...



I don't think of it as haulin' - I think of it as being able to bring my Wing wherever I go!
