For now here's a pic of the new ramps I bought from HF. On sale only $50. I'm going to bolt them together to give me a wider track. Of course I will secure these underneath to my hitch brackets so they don't slid backwards on me. I also have one of those elongated work platforms I will bring to assist in the process. I also bought a new set of ratchet straps.

Put a milkcrate to the left of the ramp, use it as a step stool so you can walk next to the bike while it is being loaded onto the bed.
Strap the bike in truck bed via weight bearing points: tires, wheels, axles, centerstand, lower front fork.
Leave suspensions free traveling during transport.
Handlebars are designed for human strength to control the bike in motion, not 1000 lb. weight limit ratchets.
