Hey Guys,

Yet another question, but of a different kind!

How do you guys get your Dirt/Enduro bikes around with the Vitara's?

I have a towbar on my one with a ball not a hitch, and im thinking that a puny vitara towbar could not handle the weight of a hitch pushing down on top of it.

Any advice appreciated on what you guys are currently doing to get your bikes around.

Bike trailer is the easiest way.

I use a trailer. I had even started making a hitch mounted carrier but the bike would stick to far out the sides of the GV. I have a KTM 450sx.

Also the max vertical load allowed on a GV tow bar is 75kgs I am sure a vit would be the same.

I just found this for RRP $588!

Looks like it would go on the towball easy enough, might need to turn the towball tongue upside down to get it low enough but haha.

Just put some f100 hubs on it and lift the guards then you could use some vit wheels. That will give it a bit more height.

for anything bigger then a pit bike... trailer would be the easiest option.

get a box trailer that way you can use it for other stuff too. like say moving a fridge/other heavy bulky stuff

will be able to fit 2 bikes on it too =]
