I too have rented a motorcycle trailer from U-Haul for 14.95 per day (what a bargain) to transport my newly purchased bike. I will say this much, the motorcycle trailer that they are going to rent you pulls like a dream. I pulled my bike from West TN all the way home to Louisville, KY and the bike did not sway at all. I just read everyone's advice post...all good ideas. After we strapped down the front and rear on my bike we also ran a tension strap over the seat. Utilized a folded bath towel on the seat to keep the strap from marking up the seat. I also recommend using some cheap little shop cloths under the straps that goes over you bars so you do not scuff up your bars. Good Luck.
