[QUOTE="RobSpring661, post: 2029581, member: 66393"] For 1 bike, angle it in so the tail gate closes , use 4 straps....two down from the triple clamps to the front corners, one from each side of subframe down to the rear corners.....Tighten then way down. Tie off each strap with the remaining tail to ensure it can't and won't pop loose......SEND IT. I have plenty of times. With the bike 4 pointed in and under load from compressed suspension it will not go anywhere. Key is to use high quality straps with solid load ratings. I would NOT use harbor freight junk. Quality nylon webbing has a safe working load of over 3500 pounds, absolutely no reason a quality strap should break from a few hundred pounds of tension that a bike in the back could generate from lateral movement.
