For a motorcycle carrier, I don't think I would do it. The upper portion of the hitch is not as heavy duty as the bottom. Also the one I recieved, was welded crooked. I would not recommend

I think so. If you feel the price is right. In many cases you can also tow with it while using carrier connection. Well made.

I don't think the top receiver can handle the weight. It works fine to pull a trailer and a bike rack on top.

The top receiver is not intended for towing, but it should work for a dirt bike. You might have to cut the length of the top receiver to get it into your receiver. I had to cut mine down which I use on a motor home.

yes-this is a great item-I had trouble with my rack dragging in some places-no more trouble.

It's definitely worth it. Anything you would like to upgrade is personal preference like handlebars and the saddle. But it'll ride great as is.

If you are using a Trailer Hitch style carries as shown in the photo it should be fine. If you are putting it on your roof rack you will need full support under it. I drive a Chevy Traverse and have a carrier that is 60" wide. This thing is made of heavy material and plenty waterproof, but it doesn't have a support system of its own.

I do believe so, if you raise the seat and your handle bars, you should be able to ride the bike. It's a great bike to have, I'm always getting compliments on mine.

New!Make sure you get a knowledgeable welder to install the tray, and realistically...it should only be mounted on a Class A, Diesel pusher. Ours works great, it carries a 2004 BMW R1150GS Adventure motorcycle.

It is impossible to answer that without knowing the make & model of your car with the rear spoiler. You can check the fit list o Allen's website for an answer. in any case, I would avoid this carrier. It is flimsy feeling and has no lateral stability. I won't trust it to carry any of my bikes.

yes it will be the best investment you can make for your vehicle. Sounds great and loos great as well.

It lifts the vehicle as much as it says, which is a noticeable lift. It looks good, but doesn't give you any extra ground clearance if that's what you're looking for.

On this type of carrier, the tire must go between the rails to be held in place by the bolt through the spokes. With typically small tires on scooters, that may be problematic. Another issue with scooters is having framework sufficiently high enough to allow straps to hold it down to the rail. As for larger motorcycles, both the weight and the distance between the carrier and the body of the transporting vehicle may be problematic. Dirt bikes (which are motorcycles) tend to have a thinner profile than street bikes. I purchased this rack to carry a dirt bike that weighed about 300 lbs on the front of a Jeep wrangler. This worked perfectly for the one trip that it was purchased to get the bike from Boston to Richmond, VA. Can't say that it wouldn't work for scooters or other motorcycles as each one has different requirements, but it worked for us.

It is a good mid lift for a sport track. It raised the vehicle in the front about 2 inches and 1 1/2 in the rear. It levels out the truck good.

Can't answer for sure......it does have enough umph and enough lift to raise my 28' trailor off the hitch of my late model Dodge 3500 4WD pickup. Which is fairly high itself.

You can raise or lower the ride with this product. I raised my 64 Impala 1 inch with the screw in metal spacers. They might be a bit simpler to install.

This wheel carrier would not support the weight of a fully assembled bike. It is only meant to carry the wheel once removed from the bike. Not to mention, it would raise the overall height of the bike significantly.

I got a 99 Dyna and it sits on it soild I can shake the bike and the Jack is sturdy. The only thing is my kickstand spring stud gets in the way a bit other than that worth the money my buddy had harbor freight one and I would not put my bike on it

I would say yes, I don't have a lift on my GMC Sierra and they look pretty damn good

That riser isn't manufactured right to fit the hitch haul. The hitch haul is only good for about one summer don't expect it to last a life time. The hitch haul neck is bent from highway bounce, I always tie additional straps to my truck in case the hitch breaks. I'd rather drag my bike than to see it get run over by a semi- truck.

I see that you have already gotten several responses and I agree with those. No problem tilting rack with bikes loaded. On a pickup truck or SUV the bikes would not likely touch the ground. The only way I see that as a problem would be if your hitch is mounted exceptionally low or maybe on a sedan. Go for it. You'll like the rack.
