TECHNOLOGY & FEATURES

MTX Platform

Heavy-duty steel main support connects to 2" receivers, hauls up to 500 lbs. (227 kgs.), supports track, chock, orientation, and distance from vehicle adjustability, alongside the attachment of innovative components.

StableStop Chock

Adjustable two-piece front tire mount locks tires up to 4.75" (120 mm) wide into track, maximizes support, and holds the bike upright while securing tie-downs.

Angled Steel Track

Angled track wedges rear tire sizes up to 6" (152 mm) wide into track and accommodates up to 65" (165 cm) wheelbases.

BroadPull Arm

Patented front tie-down arm provides main support for motorcycle stabilization. Rear tie down arm prevents rear tire from bouncing out of track.

EasyLoad Ramp

A long webbed steel ramp increases tire's traction and eases the loading angle. Ramp hooks into tire track and will not disengage during loading.

HitchLift Receiver Tube

Innovative 2" receiver tube counteracts common vehicle hitch droop with a slight upward bend, ensuring that the rack is angled correctly from the back of the vehicle. Provides additional ground clearance, attachment of ramp and distance from vehicle adjustability.

ZeroWobble+ Hitch Mount

Upgraded single-bolt hitch mount installs quickly, requires fewer tools and eliminates rack movement in transport.

"I purchased an offshore model first thinking they would all be the same, but it was a bad assumption on my part. The MotoTote carrier is substantially better. "

A good moto rack

Bought the basic model for my smaller moto. I liked the upswept frame and front tie down bar design, also liked that front tie bar is underneath the bars rather than at the midpoint. Rack was shipped quickly and arrived quickly. Assembly was fairly quick and easy. Light kit installed easily, works well. Have somewhat limited miles of use with the rack but did get in the interstate and everything seemed super solid, no issues. Only downside was rack sustained some superficial damage in shipping, felt it could’ve been packaged a little better. I thought about only giving 4 stars due to shipping damage… but the rack is nice and should get 5 stars.

2nd one!

I have one on the front of my van and one on the back carrying Honda Trail 125’s. These racks are billet proof and super sturdy!

Wheel tray arrived very useable but with a minor dent. It would have been nice to have bolt / wheel stop placement recommendations based on wheel size.

I don't write many reviews, but feel this is warranted. Good website and buying expereince, super fast shipping, quality packaging, extremely well-built carrier. Good instructions on the assembly but feel that a quick video for installing the tie-down bundle would round things out. Rock solid on a 1000 mile journey. Easy loading and unloading. Far superior to other carriers I have used in the past. You definitely get what you paid for with this product...thank you.

Great for quick loading and unloading

Nicely made. The bike ties down securely so you don’t have to worry about it while driving. Easy, fast loading and unloading. Much better than pushing up a ramp into the back of a truck.

Solid but needs more security

Easy assembly and very strong product. Really torque down the bolts and the wobble will almost all be eliminated. Really wish there was an option for a 5/8 hitch bolt since I use another anti-rattle device for additional support anyway. I would be able to feel more confident in leaving it on the truck locked up instead of a simple wrench to steal the set up while on the trails.

I would say well engineered and very high quality product. Setting it up on my rav4 and it was not even hard to load and unload the bike. How I wish it comes with different hitch hole so that you can a put a 5/8 hitch pin.

Thank you for your feedback. We will consider adding an additional 5/8 inch hole on the next iteration for customers who prefer to use a standard size hitch pin. Keep in mind that if you do, you'll need an after market anti-rattle device.

The Amazing Mototote M3

Easy install for a person who never installs things. YouTube video was very helpful but the new MotoTote M3 has updated and better bolts and asseories to make install more simpler. Drove to Idaho from Salt Lake in a 2014 FJ Cruiser to pick up a 2025 YZ250FX 150nm and back( 300 mile trip), no problem stable, no issues, very delighted with product. Also bought the rear tire tie down, amazing and secure. I recommend both products.

Wobbles

The carrier wobbles more than expected.

Thank you for your feedback. If the carrier is wobbling, please check the tightness of the two large bolts at the attachment of the MTX Platform to the square hitch tube as described in paragraph (E.) here - https://mototote.com/pages/m3-step-1

Came beat and bent up. Instructions are a bit vague, but i figured it out on my own. Good quality so far otherwise.

There is a QR code in the hardware pack to link to the online instructions.
