Can Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Work With Ultra-FAb Dirt Bike Carrier

Question:

Hi, I have a 15 Newmar Ventana motorhome. I currently flat tow a 14 Jeep Grand Cherokee with a Blue Ox setup. I am looking into adding a Vespa scooter to the mix and wondered if I could use your Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter with the Ultra-Fab Dirt Bike Carrier to mount the 250 lb scooter. Do you think it would work? Thanks!

The Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter, 4" Drop/Rise # RM-077-4 has a 400 lb tongue weight capacity so it will have enough weight capacity for your 250 lb scooter and 50 lb Ultra-Fab Dirt Bike Carrier # UF48-979033.

The Ultra-Fab is approved for use behind a motorhome and the only thing you need to ensure is you have enough room for the carrier to fit. The Receiver Adapter measures 9-1/2" from the center of its hitch pin hole to the center of the top receiver's hitch pin hole, and the Ultra-Fab Dirt Bike Carrier # UF48-979033 is 31-1/4" from the center of its hitch pin hole to the furthest edge of the carrier so in total this setup will measure a total of 40-3/4" away from your motorhome's hitch pin hole.
