I used a couple of web extensions looped around the lower triple tree. This lowered the attachment point for my ratchet hooks so that they cleared the fairing. Just don't set your anchor point in the trailer too wide apart. The bike trailers well with this set-up as long as the front wheel is secured.Google Steadymate Soft Loops to get the idea.
I use the Baxley Sport Chock which I can't say enough about. Then I use straps around the triple like stated above. For anchor points I have a small E-Track base on ea side of the chock and use quick release O rings. It's a real nice setup and allows me to go from bike hauler to anything hauler in no time with my 5x10 utility trailer.
It is just an opinion but when I use rear ties I either use them to pull straight down or pull toward the front. If the rear is pulling in an opposite direction from the front, the forces are fighting each other.
