This topic probably had many of you reaching for the vomit bucket and exploring ways of me having banned from the internet totally, but...
I'd like to get a tow bar for carrying a bike rack, and possibly towing a trailer with my dirt bike on it. The US models have a maximum towing weight of 1,000lbs, while apparently the UK/Eu models say you must never tow anything behind it.
1. Has anyone (who is lucky-enough to have their car already) seen what the Australian manual says about towing ?
2. Has anyone done any research on tow bar suppliers ?
My research so far has given me:
- Hayman Reese / Cequent Australia have no plans to make one
- Towbars Australia have no plans to make one
- best bet seem to be a Curt 114053 1 1/4" hitch (approx. US$200) from the USA plus freight costs
