Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2008 Honda Odyssey for Motorcycle Carrier
Published 09/28/2017
Question:
Jameson, Thank you for the prompt response to my question. What's tongue weight capacity of a 2008 Honda Odyssey? Just to be clear, are you sure the 350 lbs bike and carrier aren't too much for the Odyssey? I know the hitch can handle it, I'm wondering if might damage the minivan.

With a hitch installed like the Draw Tite part # 75270 installed on your 2008 Honda Odyssey you would be able to install and use a motorcycle carrier like the part # e98873.
This hitch has more than enough capacity so it would be a great option.
Suspension enhancement like the part # THROD2 would be a great option to help support the rear suspension.
