Recommended Ball Mount With Accessory Receiver To Tow Trailer And 200-Lb Motorcycle
Question:
I would like to tow a trailer and use the top receiver to mount a motorcycle carrier for a Honda CRF 125 about 200 LBS. Will this thing hold that up?

Expert Reply:
The tongue weight capacity for the MaxxTow Ball Mount With 2 Inch Accessory Receiver, part # MT70066 is 500 lbs.
The tongue weight would be the trailer tongue weight added to weight of the carrier and motorcycle.
If you use a motorcycle carrier like part # UF48-979033, it weighs approximately 50 lbs. Add the 200 for the motorcycle and that totals 250 lbs. That would leave you 250 lbs maximum for the tongue weight of the trailer.
