I have a Load All ( http://www.loadallmotorcycleramps.com/index.html ) ramp system on my 06 Ford 150 truck.  I don't think I will be able to use the handle bars on my Road Glide like I did on my 02 Road King to tie down. 

I use a front end CONDOR® PS-1500 chock that is fixed to the ramp system.

Any advise or recommendations will be greatly appreciated.

I was just forced to trailer mine to the shop today for the first time. I slipped a double loop strap around the crash bar inside the fairing supports and hooked tied owns to them. It worked very well for me. No way would I strap to the handle bars, guarantee there would be scratches on the paint.

i use the lower triple tree..

IMHO strapping to the handle bars is asking for cracked broken bars. Too many documented cases of that. Engine guard is what I use up front.

I use these on the lower triple tree and they work great. http://powertye.com/store/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=2
Then I use these on the saddlebag supports to the floor track. http://powertye.com/store/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=23

I've been reluctant to use the engine guard when tying down the beast.  I read in the manual that HD uses what they call a "break away" bolt at the top.  If this is true, I would not be using something that is designed to break as a tie down.

Any information about the upper guard bolt would be greatly appreciated...

I can tell you that from my experience, it's stronger than the frame tab it's attached to on a SEEG anyway......     spyder

Use a loop tie down threaded through the lower tripple tree.  I made a "threading tool" out of a piece of clothes hanger to "fish" the loop tie down through the tripple tree.
