Securing the Honda 2000

Question

I have a question for those of you who are storing your Honda 2000 in the space reserved for the optional propane generator.

How are you securing the Honda from bouncing around in that space. The rear of the truck experiences the most violent bumps and jolts, how do you prevent the Honda from destroying itself in that space?

Thanks!

I would use a couple of 1/2-inch ratchet straps along with some D-RING mounting hooks...Something like thisAll available from LOWES...Roy Ken

Mine does not jolt around. With the fiver hooked up the back of the truck does not jolt around either.

Mine is not in the location you described, but further back. It would see more up and down movement, if it moved. I use a single rachet strap, and a cable lock. It really takes very little to hold it. Been working for over eight years. I do not remove the Honda, strap, or lock when I run the honda.

I don't think ours has so much as even moved in the compartment.  It just sits in there without any tie downs.  If the back the the camper is jolting hard enough to make it go airborne you have other issues.  The rear tie downs are near there and would probably rip loose before a Honda would jump.
