Tim,
Thanks for the nice comment. I really liked hauling the Goldwing on the back of the coach. We had no issues what so ever but, things changed and, we wanted a different toad, a truck, so, we moved on to the Rampage Lift and now put the bike in the back of our GMC Sierra.
Now, as for protecting your "vulnerable parts" on the bike. I've buffed and polished a few hundred miles of aluminum, stainless and more and, you say you're concerned about going to Florida from your residence? Now, unless you get the bike completely coated with salt, and the go by way of Russia, Novi Scotia, Japan, Austrailia, Cuba and into Florida that way, I'd just about bet that you'd have no tarnishment, corrosion etc. on any exposed aluminum in that short of a time.
It's definitely your machine and you certainly can protect it as you see but, you may be over thinking this. Just an opinion here.
