When towing ATV, parking brake on? Tranny in Neutral?
Good morning!
I'm new here, and have spent the last hour or so researching the best way to secure my '16 Rancher to a trailer. I feel confident that the four ratchet straps I have will do the trick and I now know the best points are to secure it.
My question is concerning the brakes and transmission when towing. Maybe I didn't use the proper search terms but I didn't find a lot about it.
Personally, I think that leaving the tranny in neutral and using the parking brake (all done after strapping the trailer down to my trailer) is the way to go but I am deferring to the much more experienced members here to either agree or convince me there is a better way.
Thanks in advance everyone!

Now if I can find some good places to ride in Georgia I'll be all set!
