hitch

[roadrash]

Could any one tell me if a trailer hitch from a roadstar fit a 07 venture or a 09 tour deluxe.Any advice would help

[Freebird]

I haven't looked at them so can't so for sure but I will say that there is VERY little chance of it working for either one.

Robert can't tell you if it works or not maybe someone else will chime in.

 

You can try Don Dell, he copied mine and Moe's and made his own. 10-15 bucks worth of steel is about all it is.

Hi Brad & Rhonda

 

Would you be offering your hitch again so Robert can copy yours, as he has two to make.

 

Also did you cut the original or make the entire dog bone piece.

 

Thanks Tamara

The 11/4 receiver I purchased at Tractor Supply not sure where in Canada. Which ever way you go just mount receiver level with bike and adjust length to clear rear fender. I also made my own stinger so I my trailer tongue would be almost level maybe 1/4 '' low. Hitch height will change slightly when bike is off of side stand.

Hi Brad

 

My bike is buried also. Yesterday I thought we might get lucky this weekend, till I woke up this morning to that White stuff.

 

Thanks and we can hook up in a couple of weeks.

I'm in Kitchener in the Fischer Hallman/Westmount area. I have an R-Mark hitch on my 07 RSV and easily accessible. If you want to take a look let me know.

 

If you haven't already noticed, riders/members from this area are meeting at Pioneer BBQ on Sportsworld drive on March 24th for dinner. You can RSVP in the calendar. Right now there are 21 people confirmed. Great way to start to get to know the people in the area.

 

We also do a Wednesday evening ride in the summer out of Brantford (organized by MarCarl).

Tamara forgot to answer. Simpliest way is too cut the round bar slide a square over the round or grind off the angle brackets before welding.

 

Putting a hitch on your bike as well as Roberts new one ? Do you have a trailor ?

[roadrash]

Hi XV1100SE

 

Thanks for the offer however we can wait a little while as it is not quite summer yet, we might take you up on your offer a little later.

 

I did see the meet and greet however Robert is working. We hope to make it out to a ride.

Hi Brad

 

Yes we have a trailer, Robert made one several years ago used it a few times and then sold it. Then he made another which he still has.
