Will Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Bike Rack Have Enough Clearance to be Used When Flat Towing
Question:
Kuat Sherpa bike rack while flat towing a vehicle using dual hitch. Will there be enough room for the Sherpa bike rack between the motorhome and the tow vehicle while flat towing using a Roadmaster tow bar?
asked by: Tom
Expert Reply:
You can absolutely use the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Bike Platform Rack # SH22G with a dual adapter like the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-6 and Roadmaster tow bar as there will be enough clearance.
The Sherpa measures 34-3/8" inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the furthest part of the rack and the Roadmaster tow bars we carry, the Nighthawk All Terrain # RM-676,Sterling All Terrain # RM-576, Falcon All Terrain # RM-522, and Falcon 2 # RM-520 each have the necessary length so clearance will not be an issue!
