Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2001 Honda S2000 to Tow a Motorcycle or Jetski

Question:

I am looking for a trailer hitch for a 2001 Honda s2000 to tow a motorcycle or jetski on trailer. What do you recommend for this vehicle that is easy to install prefer no drilling or welding and that is the most hidden, so as to not ruin the looks of the car?

Currently, there is one hitch that is a confirmed fit for your 2001 Honda S2000. It's the Curt Class-I trailer hitch # C11212 and has a tongue weight of 200 pounds and gross trailer weight of 2,000 pounds. Even though drilling is required to install this hitch, it will be pretty easy. I attached a link to the installation instructions.

Since you will be doing some light duty towing, the wiring kit you need is # C59236. The kit adapts turn and stop lights (3-wire system) to a 2-wire system on your trailer. The ball mount that Curt recommends for the hitch # C11212 and your 2001 Honda S2000 is # C45510 because it has a 3-1/8 inch rise. For a 1-7/8 inch ball use # 19256 and for a 2 inch ball use # 19258.

I recommend viewing your Owners Manual to double-check the towing and tongue weight capacity before you do any type of towing.

I have included a few informative articles and video review that will provide you some great insight.

I would recommend painting any exposed metal on the drilled holes to help prevent rusting.
