I would not recommend using the etrailer Motorcycle Carrier # e98873 on your 1997 Lincoln Town Car. From the research I have done, your vehicle probably has a maximum tongue weight capacity of 200 lbs. Once you add the weight of the motorcycle carrier and weight of the item you are carrying you will probably exceed the limit of 200 lbs.

I would recommend checking your owners manual for the tongue weight and trailer weight capacity of your vehicle and looking into a small trailer.

If you need a hitch to tow a small trailer, then I would recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch, # C12130, for your vehicle.
