Question Trailer hitch for 07 Nomad 1600

mooserd · 02-05-2014, 06:20 PM

What recommendations do we have for the better support to haul a trailer?? Does a swivel pintle better or worse??

Chuckster, a member on here makes a very good hitch (and other things too) for our bikes, I use one. It is reasonably priced. I currently use a ball that pivots side to side, but I'm planning on making a "swivel hitch" to mount to the tongue of my trailer,and go with a straight ball, and going to throw the pivoting ball away. I do ride a little aggressive, even pulling the trailer, and when you go into switch back curves, the weight of the tongue flopping from side to side from the pivoting ball, does get a little nu-nerving sometimes.

Thanks VulcanE I have purchased his Bigger Lowers. They are great. I was looking at his hitches. Just wanted to make sure what others thought.
