Unless one is about the herd mentality of internet chatter/forums. My stealership ONLY uses the handlebars with canyon dancers to haul C14's (and any other bike) on their trailer, and according to them thousands of miles of C14 transport no drama =)
My stealership delivered mine using ties to the head/tubes not the handlebars. Just going by what they did, what my friend (who is into this stuff) said, and what I have seen said on the forums... that using the handlebars is not the "correct" (or perhaps "best") way to tie down a heavy bike with cast aluminum bars.
I just checked both the owner's manual and service manual and neither had anything to say about it, surprisingly (unless I just couldn't find it and it is in there).
