Wheel chocks are nice and advisable but I've hauled many a MC standing up without them. It's all a matter of properly cinching down the front end. If you do that correctly, the bike can't go anywhere.

Yep.... +1
I have hauled bikes thousands of times (raced/practiced motocross for many years in my youth).... Never once used a kickstand or center stand.
A strap on each side up front minimum with front wheel in guide or against front truck bed and on open trailers, a strap/straps on back.
I have never had a bike fall while transporting.
