You can fit a lot of luggage in your touring motorcycle's saddlebags, but sometimes, it is just not enough room for all of the things that you may need on the road. There is a simple and effective way of increasing the hauling capacity of your machine. Just browse our huge online catalog of motorcycle towing solutions to find an option that can meet your needs. We offer a wide range of motorcycle trailer hitches, receiver hitch mounts, rope and steel cable winches, winch mounts, wire harnesses and connectors, tow straps, and other products allowing you to tow a lightweight trailer or even a small camper.
All of our motorcycle towing accessories are designed to take the versatility of your bike to a whole new level. Besides towing trailers, you can attach an additional rack for your luggage, cooler, or bicycle to the ball or receiver hitch. The majority of motorcycle trailer hitches offered on our website do not require any major modifications, feature easy bolt-on installation, and can be removed in minutes. The visible portions of our hitches are chrome-plated and can add striking visual detail to the exterior or your bike. The parts that are usually hidden under the fender feature powder coated finish for better protection from the elements and road debris.
Many motorcycle trailer hitches presented on our digital shelves feature brackets that come underneath the rear fender and attach using stock fender installation bolts. You can fix such a hitch in its place by yourself in less than 30 minutes. Other types of hitches come with additional brackets featuring long top portions that can be connected to the frame rail in the points where top saddlebags are attached. This type of installation setup makes the trailer hitch extremely strong providing both vertical and horizontal stability. Some models of vertical receiver trailer hitches can be completely hidden under the rear fender of tow motorcycle. Note that the installation of other aftermarket parts on your motorcycle may affect the fitment of the trailer hitch.
When towing a trailer behind your bike, make sure not to exceed its weight capacity. The general rule says that the tongue weight of your trailer should never exceed 55 pounds. The tongue weight of the trailer is the force with which the tongue of your trailer pushes down on your hitch ball. Remember that this force should not exceed 15 percent of the trailer weight (including cargo). When loading your trailer, make sure that the majority of the mass is placed over the axle or slightly shifted forward. If the weight of your cargo is distributed mostly behind the axle, the tongue weight of the trailer becomes light causing the trailer to sway on the road, which is extremely dangerous.
To tow a trailer behind your motorcycle safely, first of all, make sure that your machine is powerful enough to pull the weight that you need to take with you on the road. The added mass of the trailer with cargo puts additional load on both tires of your motorcycle, so you have to inflate them properly. Ride closer to the center of the lane taking into account wider dimensions of your trailer. Don’t forget that when you're towing a trailer, your braking distance increases substantially, which is why you should leave extra room in front of you to avoid collisions with other vehicles. Also, take extra precautions and go slower on corners.
