MC carrier: Who would use this thing?

[McVaaahhh]

This just looks like a really bad idea to me.

[Snowman]

Depends. Is that a child's car seat on the back of that bike?

[MetaLord 9]

looks like a pretty good way to jack your wheel & suspension up, especially if you've gotta swerve. Oh and what the hell's supposed to keep the bars from turning erratically?

Hard to see, but you tie the bars to the rack. Forks should stay straight with the car.

[puckstr]

But you know some retard would mount that on his pickup even when the was empty.

Not like people haven't towed cars that way. I'm sure if it's sturdy up front, it'll work, but who really wants to put a bunch of highway miles on an expensive ass knobby rear tire? I would think the ones that mount the time perpendicular to the vehicle in the back, are the better way to go.

Yeah, but I'm saying stopping on a downhill curve is gonna put A LOT of stress on those forks

I guess I'm saying I sure wouldn't tow my bike like that, especially not at highway speeds.

[Nick_Ninja]

I want to see it hit a chuck hole :twisted:

[Captain Obvious]

I wouldn't use it. Even in neutral, I see drivetrain wear. Just get a $200 trailer and tie it down.

[lightspeed]

No sir...certainly not at highway speeds. Looks very unstable.......

[MetaLord 9]

Yeah, it's called the fast way to needing a new chain & sprockets

[Gainer]

^ +1

[CHRISTIAN COWBOY]

i actually had one, was great to have around to tow the harley home when it broke down, I mean my friends harley.....

have a trailer now, just in case my friends harley breaks down again.
Works great, doesnt it Boebe or Cravin??

[Bueller]

Take the chain off and DOT knobbies it would be fine upto 65 or so. Wouldn't be my first choice but I'd use it.

:lol:
An 80 mph stoppie would be bad then?

I'd put my mother-in-law on there as we drove her back to Maryland.
