Try Rivco. Just remember to not put anything fragile into a hitch carrier.

I purchased an aftermarket hitch and mfg a platform.20140913_081635.jpg20140913_081655.jpg
The problem I had was the platform sticking out too far caused the hitch to sag.
so I removed the hitch and welded some stiffeners to the underside.20141023_112346.jpg
For the platform I purchased one at harbor freight that was way too big and I took it apart and made it much smaller.
The total weight for the platform and the "Really Usefull Box" is about 6 pounds total.
I only had our 2 helmets and our rain suit in it and it still bent.

What is the box you used and where can I find it?
Thanks,

I had looked at http://www.pakitrak.com then decided with a trailer from www.minitrailerusa.com. That way had room for cooler and some cups

RIVCO Hitch Racks not recommended for unsprung hitches

If people follow that link above, they will see that on the rack descriptions we don't endorse use on un-sprung hitches. All our best! The folks at RIVCO

I agree. The BRP hitch rides on the swingarms, so is impacted with every bump the rear wheel rolls over. I would guess that would accelerate metal fatigue immensely.
