Honda CRF250F Owner's Manual Installation And Operation page 219

Check that the tie-down straps do not
contact any control cables or electrical
wiring.
Tighten both straps until the front
suspension is compressed about half-way.
Too much pressure is unnecessary and
could damage the fork seals.
Use another tie-down strap to keep the rear
of the motorcycle from moving.
We recommend that you do not transport
your motorcycle on its side. This can
damage the motorcycle, and leaking petrol
could be a hazard.
