garyjzr Posted March 1, 2007 #1 Posted March 1, 2007 "Venturedad" vs. "Vertical Hide a Hitch by Cheyenne Trailers" on the diamond r website. Has anybody installed the hidden hitch and how hard is the stinger to remove?
Midrsv Posted March 1, 2007 #2 Posted March 1, 2007 I've got a vertical receiver hitch for my Unigo trailer and it works fine. Inserting the hitch drawbar is no more difficult than a horizontal hitch. My bar is square instead of the rectanular bar on the Cheyenne hitch. I bought my hitch from Dauntless motors and I don't recommend them. Very poor customer service. For photos of my drawbar follow this link: http://www.traynorphoto.com/unigo/ DT
Freebird Posted March 1, 2007 #3 Posted March 1, 2007 If I were in the market for a hitch, I would no doubt buy the hidden hitch that Diamond R sells. I really like the design. I already have a Bushtec hitch on my bike or that is the one I would buy. More money but I like that you can remove the stinger and then can't see the hitch.
garyjzr Posted March 1, 2007 Author #4 Posted March 1, 2007 I'm going to order the hide a hitch from the diamond r site and their leveling kit.
RPG Posted March 1, 2007 #6 Posted March 1, 2007 I have the Venturedad hitch. I've had it for a couple of years now, its very well made and inexpensive. I'm very happy with it and would buy another one in an instant if I needed another one.
Tartan Terror Posted March 1, 2007 #7 Posted March 1, 2007 I have the Venturedad hitch. Keep in mind that if you want to put a cooler rack on the back it will make a cleaner closer install. Ask Double D on that one.
Double D Posted March 2, 2007 #8 Posted March 2, 2007 I have the Venturedad hitch. Keep in mind that if you want to put a cooler rack on the back it will make a cleaner closer install. Ask Double D on that one. I just ordered the cooler rack below along with the Modulite wiring harness. When I get it all mounted I will post some pics. The Venturedad hitch when on is about 15 minutes and looks great.
Guest FreeMasonRC S.FL Posted March 3, 2007 #10 Posted March 3, 2007 I just installed my hitch , its from hitch doc www.hitchdoc.com ps i have a hitch for a roadstar, if anyone interested.
lesman Posted March 6, 2007 #11 Posted March 6, 2007 I purchased a VentureDad hitch. I only took about 5 minutes to install once I found my tools (That's a longer story). Great service when you contact them. He shipped the hitch out before I sent a check to him. Les
Keech Posted March 7, 2007 #12 Posted March 7, 2007 I also have the Venturedad hitch. Good quality and a good price.

Mikealiasmike Posted July 16, 2007 #16 Posted July 16, 2007 Does anyone have a picture of a Vertical Hide a Hitch from Diamond-R installed on a bike already? Would like to see it on AND off. Also, what is the tongue rating and towing weight. I saw Venturedads is 40 lbs and 400 respectfully. Thanks. Ride safe and God Bless. Mike
ediddy Posted July 16, 2007 #17 Posted July 16, 2007 Hey Midsrv, How long have you had your unigo and are you satisfied with it. I had just about decided on the uigo but a friend on mine that rides a goldwing said a lot of the wingers had trouble with the fiberglass cracking on the unigo and they hadn't gotten very good customer service from unigo. I have been on the wing web site but haven't seen anyone mention problems with the unigo so it could just be rumor. Thanks.
Guest skunk328 Posted July 24, 2007 #18 Posted July 24, 2007 I use the VentureDad. Very easy to install. Recently on a trip out east, the U-Bolts on one side of the axle of my trailer broke , the axle shifted and the tire blew. No problem with the hitch! I did have to buy a new trailer though! Skunk328
