a strap is no replacement for a swaybar... swaybar doesnt lower your quad it keep your quad from rolling in the corners... but ya a strap will work but you will be alot faster if setup right... they sell lowering kits and also flat track type shocs.. to hep lowering it... alot of small timers like my self used to think just get it low but you will be faster to have suspension and let the bike work with you and not bounce around... ... here is is pic of mine lowered the right way .. and i am a budget racer i dont have over 100 bucks in lowering and tires for my 2 times a yr races....
