Very well built can not wait to use it

I had a look at the harbor freight motorcycle carrier as well as the inexpensive ones available through Cycle Gear. I'm glad that I decided to spend the extra get a MotoTote. It seems to be very well-made. TheTW200 that I carry around on the back of my Ford transit loads easily and stays upright on its own. It's also very secure once it's tied down. Similarly, it doesn't rattle.

I'm glad I spent the extra money.

I’ve had two motorcycle hitch carrier prior for my 4Runner. Neither was particularly confidence inspiring. Recently I decided to buy a motorcycle about a thousand miles away and absolutely did not want to use one of my other hitch carriers and I didn’t particularly want to use a trailer either. So I gave mototote a shot.

The bike is a 278lb dirt bike which is less than half the load rated capacity with everything I’ve done to it. So that wasn’t a concern the chuck and ramp was however.

Luckily the mototote did not disappoint. I did 995 miles with it attached and no bike loaded. Then I did 1128 miles with the bike on the back hauling it home. After 38 hours straight of driving absolutely nothing loosened. The bike didn’t move an inch. The thing exceeded expectations to say the very least. So, I would without a doubt recommend this if you have a similar use case.

I would recommend the deluxe strap kit and the light kit. Especially for long distance use or rough terrain use.

I have also talked with mototote about my biggest gripe which is the packaging this comes in. My package had busted open in transit which didn’t lead to any missing parts but it did lead to multiple parts being marred down to bare metal which had started to rust prior to me even receiving it. They sent out a touchup kit no questions asked though which is why it’s keeping the 5 stars. Definitely recommend.

I purchased few items including a toe hitch from these guys. The after sale service has been amazing. Fast and with solutions. Not everything is always perfect but these guys come as close as it can be.

Went with mototote because of the lighter weight, I plan to use it fairly regularly and that will pay off in the end. Carrier feels very solid and I have no qualms about rolling my 1290 super duke on it; but for the cost I expect a better finish. The carrier arrived with multiple marks, in several cases down to the bare metal which I now need to paint to prevent rust; the central tab for the ramp was also slightly misaligned and wouldn’t let me slide the end onto the end point, a quick tap with a hammer fixed that issue. The clip for the ramp is a nice touch, I’ve seen others that require tools to remove and reattach.

Was very hesitant about using a hitch carrier to haul my dual sport bike. Looked at cheaper carriers first. Decided to spend the extra money on the Sport and very glad I did! Extremely pleased how sturdy it is with my bike loaded on it. Highly recommend!

Washers are not strong enough to withstand the torque specs recommended by MotoTote, they bend (cup). The “zero wobble” is not exactly no wobble. The U bolt anti rattle system that other companies use is better in my opinion. The styrofoam packing used to “protect” the parts during shipping should be twice as thick. Most of the parts were scuffed, paint damage during shipping. Even though a little bit heavier, I feel the carrier that Harbor freight sells is more sturdy and stronger hardware.

Awesome, well built,Love the optional light kit. Minutes to assemble. I give it a 👍👍👍👍👍

I use this carrier for a Yamaha YZ250FX using a Class 3 hitch. It handles USFS roads with no problem. The fabrication and finish details are second to none that I have used. Totally worth the money considering you have several thousand smackers dangling from the back of your rig.
