Motorcycle Trailer Hitches & Receivers
A motorcycle trailer hitch turns your bagger or tourer into a real hauler for a small cargo trailer or pull-behind camper. The right hitch is rated for the tongue weight, mounts to the bike's subframe without flexing, and clears the saddlebags and fender. Rogue Powersports stocks bolt-on hitches and receivers built for Harley-Davidson, Honda Goldwing, Indian, and Yamaha tourers.
Choosing the Right Hitch for Your Bike
- Bolt-On Trailer Hitches: Direct-fit bolt-on hitches from Rivco, Khrome Werks, and Bushtec install with no welding using existing subframe holes. The standard for Harley-Davidson Touring models.
- Universal Receivers: 1-1/4-inch and 2-inch receivers accept a standard ball mount, hitch carrier, or cooler rack. Match the receiver class to the trailer's tongue weight.
- Wiring Harnesses: 4-pin and 5-pin wiring harnesses tap into stock running, brake, and turn-signal circuits. Look for harnesses with a load isolator to protect the bike's CAN-bus.
- Hitch Cargo Carriers: Receiver-mounted cargo trays and cooler racks add cargo space behind the rear wheel for short hauls and rallies.
- Tongue Weight Limits: Most motorcycle hitches are rated for 200-300 lb tongue weight. Stay well under the bike manufacturer's GVWR with the trailer loaded.

Frequently Asked Questions
What hitch do I need for my motorcycle trailer?
Most motorcycle trailers use class II (3,500 lb GVWR) or class III (8,000 lb) hitches. Match the hitch to your tow vehicle's rating. Don't exceed factory tow rating.
Can I add a hitch to my motorcycle?
Yes — Hitch-Hauler, Pro Pad, and Kuryakyn make motorcycle-mounted hitches for towing small trailers. Carry 200-500 lb (light cargo trailer or single-bike trailer).
How are motorcycle hitches installed?
Bolt-on to the rear subframe and frame (typically 4-6 bolts). Most installs take 1-3 hours. Premium hitches include reinforcement plates for the trailer load.
Are motorcycle hitches DOT-legal?
Most quality motorcycle hitches are DOT-compliant (have proper trailer wiring connector). Always include trailer brake controllers if state-required.
How much can a motorcycle pull?
Most cruisers and touring bikes pull 200-500 lb of trailer + cargo. Verify with your bike's manufacturer — exceeding rating risks frame damage and accidents.
