The MotoTote works extremely well with a vehicle that will support it's weight and the weight of the bike. As I stated before, I used it on a 2000 Navi for 2 years and made several local and out of states trips. I'm currently using it on a 1998 F-150 with no problems. The rack is the perfect option for me b/c I like the fact that it moves with the truck. Never have worry about counter steering when backing as with a trailer or getting a trailer registered and licensed. Not to mention somewhere to store one. The MotoTote leans nicely against the wall in my garage and only takes up a 3 foot corner ;o)
What I'm actually considering doing is attaching Tone's hitch (with the 4 bolts) and then having it spot welded for reinforcement. That's actually the way that the factory hitch is attached to the F-150 (and I assume it was that way on the Navi as well).
Tone, I'll probably be contacting you the first of next week to get the hitch and light kits ordered. Once I get it installed, I'll make an appointment with a machine shop to have it spot welded. Once it's on there, I never intent removing it.
