I have my Bushtec hitch on the way Lamont. The only bike I don't have setup for it will be my 67 Triumph and I think I'll let that one alone.http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m274/roknroe/Mypics036.jpg

That's not a Bushtec hitch. That's one that is mounted on the swingarm (Very Bad Idea) ::)

Best to call them. Their website is not updated very often, they're too busy making trailers and hitches. ;D

Lamont, Are the wires for the trailer connection running through the down supports on yours? When I talked to Andrews dad yesterday he said he thought they did yours that way. I emailed Andrew today about seeing if they could run my loom through the tube. He is off at an event right now though.

They are ran in the right side of the bottom hoop.

I had hitchdoc.com make me a special hitch for my Softail. Chromed, and very strong. It only cost $275.00. Hard to imagine buying something for a Can-Am that's twice the price as a Harley product. HD doesn't even sell a backrest/rack combination for anything close to $600. My how times have changed. I'm still going to buy a hitch...I think they're cool.
