Does Draw Tite Hitch for 2003 Honda Odyssey Have Capacity to Tow Motorcycle Trailer
Question:
Hi. I have a 2003 Honda Odyssey. I see the max toungue weight on this trailer hitch is 675 lbs.. I have a draw tite now that says the toungue weight is rated for 350 lbs... I have a 383lb motorcycle I want to carry on my Honda Odyssey. Will the 75270 draw tite hitch be able to carry my motorcycle since it has a 675lb toungue weight? Also, can this hitch only be installed on the back of the vehicle? Is there such thing as a front mounted hitch? Let me know anything you can I’d like to come to a decision soon thanks.

With any towing setup you are only as strong as your weakest link. The hitch for your 2003 Honda Odyssey # 75270 that you referenced was made with more capacity than the vehicle has but you have to stay under the capacity of the vehicle as well. Only solution would be to tow a small trailer for your motorcycle.
While there are front hitches out there for some vehicles they aren't available for every vehicle like yours.
