I can't speak for Irish ferries, but on cross channel ones accepted wisdom seems to be to let them get on with it an just keep an eye.
If you do it they probably wouldnt accept liability for mishaps.
What you may like to do is lash your brake lever, although I just put the bike in gear.
And you may like to have something soft to put between strap and saddle in case their padding is grimey. I've use a glove before.
Has anyone seen a bike fall over? There's a debate sidestand vs centrestand but that doesn't apply to an SV. FWIW the collective wisdom on that issue was sidestand.
