The 2020 1250RS owners manual (pg 134) describes how to tie the bike down for trailering (Lashing). It doesn't mention turning the ignition on. Only says to tie it down evenly and shows the locations for the tie downs. I have trailered mine a number of times and never activate the ESA. I would think that tying the bike down with ESA active would result in the bike being loose once you shut down the ignition and the suspension relaxes.
