The one he have is made by bushtec and is $409.00 the only problem you can only use their $5000.00 trailersI think Lamonster has one on his 9 .
Thank you! And also I send you a PM regarding about that hitch:dontknow:I've got a Uni-Go trailer on order with Schoolhouse, should arrive in two weeks. I had two different engineers check out the Denray hitch for me - mainly for sway issues. Both came back with positive reports on this hitch for the Uni-Go trailer using the Uni-Go hitch adapter. The universal joint connection and single wheel takes the low sway out of the equation as the Uni-Go will lean with you and not torque the hitch. Could be an issue with two wheeled trailers - steel fatigue could occur where the mounting tube stops on the hitch side and could develop stress cracks over time.
When I received the hitch I wasn't happy with the mounting hardware, looked like a quick trip to the local hardware store - galvanized nuts/bolts - they don't tell you this or give you an option, it's a supprise. I changed them out for chrome, another $70 or so. I also didn't like the thru-bolt location/angle on the mounting tube for the hitch bar. You can't put the bolts in from the top side :dontknow: the fender/chrome trim is in the way. You have to install the bolts through the bottom with the heads down, nuts up. My thought is you always want the nut on the bottom just in case it works itself loose and falls off. The bolt may ride until you notice it, no chance with the bolt upside down. There is also a set bolt on the end of the mounting tube for added safety.
Other than the galvanized mounting bolts and location of the through bolt holes I like the look, clean - nothing hiding the chrome wheels/swingarm etc.
Working on a link pin or hitch pin with clip or safety lock for a quick release that will work with the existing bolt hole locations - chrome of course, stock up on the red lock tight in the mean time. My .02 worth.
Thanx a lot for you helpSlipped the hitch on my bike so you could see all sides installed. I've got a 250 EIII on a stock rim, not sure how much wider a 280 is - you could probably find out here on the forum somewhere. I measured the 250 on my stock rim at just under 10" (9 7/8"), the mounting tubes measure 11 1/4" clear inside face to inside face. If you follow recommended clearances you wouldn't want to go over 10 3/4" total tire width on a rim without modifying the mounting tube brackets, cutting off the existing brackets and welding off-set brackets on to push them out - maybe flush with the outside of the fender or chrome trim (you'd have to re-chrome mounting tubes). You could spread the hitch bar 1/2" to 1" pretty easy, any more could distort the look and could be too much of an angle to slide into the mounting tubes - I have to flex it in a bit to get it in the mounting tubes now. Hope this helps.
