Expert Reply:
I have a solution for you to secure your 2020 HD Tri-Glide Ultra Trike to the floor of a trailer, but the B&W Biker Bar # BWMC2301 is only compatible with the 2014 and earlier Tri-Glides. After 2014 they changed the location of the foot-brake, making this product incompatible with the Tri-Glide series trikes.
Instead, I recommend using tie down anchors like the Brophy Swiveling D-Ring Anchors with Backing Plates # RR6K-4 which will provide you with 4 points on the trailer to secure your trike during travel. These D-Ring anchors have a safe working load limit of 2000-lbs per anchor, which is going to be more than enough for your roughly 1200-lbs Harley and this kit comes with all of the hardware needed for installation.
If you need tie-down straps, I recommend using the ShockStrap Ratchet Tie-Down Straps # 297-7RSBB since they're ideal for tying down anything with a suspension that may otherwise come loose and move around with regular ratchet straps. These straps are really a great invention and I've linked a video of them to this answer for you to check out and see how they work and why they're perfect for this application.
