Finished my Hidden Mototcycle Hitch

  • April 14, 2011 5:33 PM PDT
    What hitch.. right . I wanted to make it strong but completely hidden when not in use.. So here it is.

    I took most the winter designing it and then a couple of weeks to make and install it.

    Very cool. Do you have a picture from the side... interested in seeing how it mounts!

    Nevermind, I saw there was an error with a couple of the uploads... all fixed now!

    I like that. Much better than the external hitch hardware mounted on my Kingpin. Nice work, man.

    Very nice. Wish mine was hidden like that. Now, when you start pulling a trailer be ready to replace back tires....... Pulling a trailer with a bike is hell on them. I pulled mine on a 4000 mile ride.... Left home on a brand new tire and came home on threads !!!!!

    The hitch looks good and i'm after the same look of the hidden hitch. My problem is I ride an 08 streetglide and the rear fender is very low to the ground and when I contact someone online about the hidden receiver idea they all say oh were not sure that will work on your glide because of the lower fenders. I'm a fan of the look but wan't to tow a trailor too! Any ideas or websites that you have come across, let me know because I don't want to pull out my high spped cutter and the summer is just around the corner. Thanks Terry
