HAD MINE FOR A YEAR NOW. NO PROBLEMS WITH TOWING. THE FIT WAS TIGHT ON MY 06. I DIDN'T FOLLOW THE DIRECTION ALL THE WAY. I PUSHED AND SHOVED TILL I GOT THE BARS INTO PLACE WITHOUT LOOSENING THE BAGS LIKE THEY SAY. STILL ALL IN ALL FOR THE MONEY THEY ARE NOT BAD. I HAD TO REPLACE A TIRE ALSO AND HAD NO PROBLEM WITH THE HITCH. I EVEN WENT TO THE DARKSIDE WITH A CAR TIRE AND STILL HAD NO PROBLEM. |

I did not install this product on my bike as it was delayed for shipment and I had to purchase a hitch locally and ended up with a Kuryakyn. What I did find out in the process however was that you do not need to buy the receiver that they list at the bottom. There is a chrome one included with the hitch along with the 1 7/8" ball. I was led to believe that you needed to order it seperately which is false. |

Fabulous. It is solid and good looking. And the ability to remove the hitch when not in use is a nice touch. Install is challenging but not difficult. Be patient and careful. As others have noted, the included instructions are basically worthless. Dropping the muffler's is easy and helps some but you can install without doing so. But what the instructions don;t point out, is removing the rear crash guard is imperative. I got CWOLAW's instructions too late to help. I received them just a few minutes after completing the install. They would have been very useful. Highly recommended! |

Even with the poor pictures, it was easy enough to figure out. Not rocket science. '06 is a tight fit, but it does fit. Best to have a helping hand. I had to tap the holes, they were full of paint, no problem. Seems to be solid enough, time will tell. You do need to lay on the ground to install and remove reciever but that's what you get for having a HIDDEN hitch, deal with it. Over all, I am happy. |

Just installed the hitch on my 07 and it was a little difficult to align the bolt holes. Having someone help with aligning the bolt holes you would have no problems with the install, especially if you get CWOLAW's instructions. Thanks Steve! Once it was on it looks and works great, money well spent. |

After reading the reviews, I had some misgivings about this hitch. But, I liked it so I ordered it anyway. The instructions are POOR. Never the less the instalation was very simple. Took me about 45 minutes. And it looks great and works perfectly on my bike. I did not encounter any misfitment problems or any problems at all in fact. Great hitch, Fantastic pricing!!

Was easy enough to install (I own a 2007), but did not clear rear fender and was wider than the subframe it was supposed to fit between. Never could get it to fit right. It always bulged out the fender and widened the gap between saddle bags and rear fender. I suspect China? A $140.00 "lesson" here. Took it off and bought a Bushtec. Now that's a trailer hitch! |

Great hitch and very easy to install IF you ask CWOLAW for his most excellent picture and instructions. I was able to complete this installation in about an hour. Thank you CWOLAW...your awesome. |

Great buy. Don't recall having problems with instructions but I don't don't usually read ver-batum anyway. Have found it less hassle to remove rear tire by jacking bike up 3-4 inches above center stand height and sliding tire out side. Cross member is too tight to mess with. Pulled Hannigan Sierra trailer from KC to West coast and back (4900 miles) No problems. Love it. |

Installed this last weekend. Install took about 2 hours, my son helped with half the install. I read the instructions, they do suck, ended up just doing the install by trial and error fitting. The installation ended up looking very nice. Do not intend, at least yet, on towing a trailer. My brother-in-law built me a cooler rack from plans I drew up and I plan on using that for hauling extra stuff. Like the way that hitch is hidden from view once you remove the ball. This product is a great value compared to others I have seen on the web. Would love to see add-on respond to customer comments on the lousy instructions. I have heard other complaints about add-on's instructions with other products as well. Maybe they could hire some of us to write their instructions. |
