I should clarify, Jumbofrank is right, if you don't compress the suspension it will likely loosen up. If you have ever had a dirtbike you will understand. You have to push down the front end, compressing the suspension, while tightening the strap. I don't worry about it for short trips. My popo fits so tight in my little trailer that I only set the brake and leave it in park. There's no where for it to go. Short trips I will throw a couple of straps on it. Long trips or using my flatbed trailer is another story, I strap it down tight on all fours and my wife compresses the suspension....Oops....LOL....good thing she doesn't read this!!! LOL!
