I pick this hauler up from my local auto-parts store for only $150 CDN. Once I put it together it felt a little hokey, but it was rated for 500 lbs. so I strapped my bike to it and off I went to a buddies cabin in Shushwap BC.
Around 400 miles round trip and I never had a prob with the bike coming loose. It does have some movement within the hitch, but nothing that has me worried. I say money well spent....:thumbup:
The reason I drove rather than ride is because of all the killer mountain trails up there too. We were planning to do a day trip 4x4ing, but my buddies truck crapped out on him on the way to the cabin(Ford), so that killed those plans.
The weather was more sun than cloud , so it was a great time riding the lake roads, wakeboarding, a eating my face off. It was a boys only week-end so thats why there are only dudes in the pic...lol
The last pic is about a half second before I bailed hard and hurt my ankle...when I went down, my foot came out of the binding and hit the board..ouch...I took the pic about 5 mins after I got out of the water and it was already turning purple and swelling..oh well, wasnt my shifting foot at least..
