Motorcycle Carrier Recommendation
Question:
Im looking for an motorcycle hitch carrier for: 2014 Genuine Buddy 50cc Scooter 47-48inch wheelbase, 220lb 1970 Honda CT90 also around 47inch wheelbase, 200lb Ideally, Id like a unit that could move both bikes simultaneously, but Im fine with just one as I think the max tongue weight on my Honda Pilot is 450 so the math just doesnt work out. That being said, at some point Id like to be able to put a dirt bike on it so I want something that can do both scoot er/small bike and a dirt bike. Thank you!

Without knowing what year your Honda Pilot is I can't look up the tongue weight rating of the hitch that you would have on it, but I can say that our the weight of your carrier plus the weight of your bike must be less than your tongue weight.
For a great carrier I would recommend the # e98873. This carrier has a 500 lb capacity that should work well for either your scooter or a dirt bike in the future.
