I'm hoping to take a long trip in my '87 Westy this summer. I'm playing with the idea of mounting a motor scooter (Yamaha, Honda, Vespa, etc.) on the back or front of the van. I found a platform for a scooter that mounts in a trailer hitch in a catalog but it seems like the trailer hitch may be a problem. It needs to support about 200 pounds of weight. The local Draw Tite dealer didn't even list a hitch for the van. Has anyone carried a scooter on their van before? Front or back? ANy suggestions for a hitch that has a tongue weight of 200 pounds or so? Thanks in advance! Jeff H. '87 Westy Chapel Hill, NC |
