Hello, Im looking for product information/comparison/recommendation. I have a 2007 Nissan Murano SL and Im wondering what the differences proandcon of the Curt trailer hitch Item #13571 vs the Draw-tite Item #75148. This trailer hitch will mostly be used for a dirt bike carrier which I am also looking for recommendations for motorcycle carrier. Thank you for your help and recommendations on what the best product to suit my needs are.

The hitches that are a fit for your 2007 Nissan Murano only have a 350 tongue weight capacity. The etrailer # e98874 weighs 58 pounds and would be a great carrier for you as long as the 58 pounds plus the weight of your motorcycle weighs less than the 350 pound tongue weight limit.
The better hitch choice is the Draw Tite par # 75148 which does not require a stabilizer strap like part # 18050 when carrying a non-supported load like the Curt hitch does.
