Question:
Would the Draw-Tite Hitch # 36408 work to tow two dirt bikes weighing about 500 lbs, not including the trailer weight?
asked by: Justin
Expert Reply:
The Draw-Tite Class II Trailer Hitch, item # 36408, would work great for towing a small trailer, as long as it does not weigh more than 3500 lbs (trailer + load). However, I usually recommend that people at least consider going with a Class III hitch when they have the choice. A Class III hitch, like item # 75681, would allow for greater flexibility in the future, as you will have a better selection of accessories, such as a cargo carriers and bike racks.
