Question:
Hello, I need to transport a motorcycle and a cargo trailer with my SUV. Is there a way to have a motorcycle hitch that can also attach a small uhaul trailer?

Expert Reply:
There is but It depends on how heavy your motorcycle is. We have the Erickson Motorcycle Carrier item # EM65MJ which has a 500 lbs capacity. However, to haul a motorcycle and pull a trailer at the same time you'll have to use the Curt Multipurpose Ball Mount with 2" Receiver for Bike Racks and Cargo Carriers item # D210, which has a 750 lbs tongue weight capacity. This would include the weight of the carrier 53 lbs and your motorcycle.
