Could a 260 lb Motorcycle be Carried on a MaxxTow Motorcycle Carrier on a 2003 Honda Pilot

Question:

I would like to carry a SYM Wolf 150 Motorcycle 260 pounds using a Curt Class 3 Receiver Hitch #13328 and this Motorcycle Carrier e98873. Would this be possible? Thank you.

The max tongue weight that can be used on the Curt Hitch # 13328 that you referenced is 350 lbs. The etrailer motorcycle Carrier # e98873 that you referenced weighs about 58 lbs, so if you add that to the 260 lbs of your motorcycle you are at 318 lbs which is below the max capacity of the hitch and the carrier.

The only other thing you should check is the owner's manual of your 2003 Honda Pilot and make sure it has a capacity of more than 318 lbs and you will be good.
