Video Transcript for Rage Hitch Mounted Double Motorcycle Carrier Review
Today we are going to show you the rage dirt bike carrier part number AMC6002. It is a two bike dirt bike carrier designed for a two inch receiver. It comes with an anti-rattle device which is located back here and you simply tighten down these screws to lock it down into place. It is made of aluminum and steel construction, it comes with hangars here to strap down the dirt bike, so you have two here and two back here. The dirt bike carrier also comes with these pins which we will slide in here for bikes with smaller tires. If you have a larger bike, simply take the pin out and your tire will rest in the larger crevice there which will help with stability while you are towing. 1:17
It also comes with this ramp that you see here, which detaches and you set it on the rear of the dirt bike carrier for loading and off-loading of the bikes, the max weight for this carrier is 600 pounds. Now we will go ahead and load a bike onto the carrier. We will start by taking this ramp off here, you have two little wing nuts and the ramps slides off the front. Now I am going to attach the ramp back here in the back, there is a little lip right here so this will rest right on that lip. I am going to load the bike now. 2:04
Now that we have the bike loaded here, I am going to grab a ratchet strap and attach it to the attachment point down here, then I will find some point to attach to up here at the motorcycle. Now that I have this side we will move to the other side and do the same thing. Now that your bikes are securely in place we will take the ramp off here and place it back onto the front and we will put our wing nuts back into place. And this will conclude our demo of part number AMC6002 the two dirt bike carrier from Rage. 3:50

You will need to take the lower of the two numbers if they are different as your overall tongue weight capacity since the lowest rated component in your setup will always be your overall capacity.

- Parts Needed to Carry 2 Honda Elite 80 Scooters Behind a Motor Home
- The reason that a carrier like # AMC6002, cannot be used on the back of an RV or trailer is because the back ends of them are too far from the rear axle. This creates a lot of extra bouncing, jarring, and movement which equals more stress that the carrier is not designed to handle.
You would need a more robust carrier that has 3 shanks instead of just 1 and would require a special 3-receiver trailer hitch. We do have these items. For the special hitch, you would use # SC9000. You can install

- Determining Motorcycle Carrier Capacity on 2011 Honda Pilot With Class III Hitch
- The Rage PowerSport Aluminum Double Motorcycle Carrier, part # AMC6002, can carry up to 600 pounds.
I researched the weights of your two Vespas, 150cc and 250cc, and they can vary somewhat based on specific model. Approximate dry weight for the 150cc is 243 pounds, and 322 pounds dry weight for the 250cc. Even without the weight of fluids in the scooters your total weight load will already be near to the carrier limit. This weight makes the Rage carrier unsuitable for your application..

- Would the Rage Powersports Double Motorcycle Carrier Carry 2 Dirt BIkes or 1 Street Bike
- The Rage PowerSport Aluminum Double Motorcycle Carrier # AMC6002 that you referenced has a 600 lb capacity so as long as your 2 dirtbikes weight less than that you should be fine. Most dirt bikes weight less than 300 lbs a piece but if you have a dual sport dirt bike you will need to be sure.
I would recommend you weigh each bike to be sure that they weigh less than a combined weight of 600 lbs.
For your street bike that weights 450 lbs this should work very well for you. I would recommend

- What Carrier Would Be Used for a Dirt Bike on the Front of a Truck
- In determining whether or not a rack on the front of your Ford F250 truck to carry a dirt bike will work, you have a lot of variables to consider. First and foremost, although your hitch will support 600 pounds, you have to check your owners manual to find out what weight your axles will support.
If you determine that your truck does have the capacity to carry your dirt bike while taking into consideration the weight of the carrier, I would recommend the Rage Power Sport Carrier part # MX600.

- Use of the Rage Hitch Mounted Double Motorcycle Carrier Behind a Trailer or Motor Home
- The Rage Hitch Mounted Double Motorcycle Carrier, item # AMC6002 is not designed to be used behind fifth-wheel trailers or large motor homes because the ride behind these vehicles is significantly more harsh than behind a vehicle. There would be no way of attaching the motorcycles good enough to keep them adequately secured in these locations.
At this time we do not have a motorcycle carrier rated for use in these positions.
