Ideas for carrying/securing open framed generator

I purchased a new Champion 4000W generator yesterday and am looking for ideas of how to transport and secure from theft on my Gulf Stream 21 foot TT. I like the idea of having it on the trailer tonuge and saw that Camping World has a carrier that fits over the gas bottles.

Are there any other options I'm missing? I'd like to see photos of your set ups.

    Very correct, 2oldman. Thieves know "good" ones from the "loud" ones. Mounting on the tongue? How heavy is it?

    You may be in luck. Thieves go for the inverter gens, not the big heavy open-frame ones.
