Default Cruiser Carrier for Motorhome

Haven't been here in a while, so thought I'd check back in. Has anyone used a Blue Onyx Cruiser Carrier on a motorhome.I have a 30' RV And a 99 Heritage Softail. Looking at a used carrier. Any opinions?

Default I bought it

Well, I bought the Cruiser Carrier. It looks like it'll work OK. I have to weld some brackets to my RV. The thing that is iffy is that it sticks out about 3 1/2 Ft. behind the RV. We'll see how it works on the road.

You need to post some pictures when you are done.
That will put about an extra 1,000 lbs. on your rear axle. Have you weighed the axles on your motorhome to see what you are carrying when fully loaded before you add another 1/2 ton?

Check out the MOTOTOTE website. I had one of the heavy duties and it was really nice. Although I am a bit sketchy about hanging my bike off the back of a hitch so I bought a trailer. Either way, I will vouch for the MOTOTOTE for quality and reliability. Comes with a ramp too and anti-sway.

I am looking for the same thing. Don't have the motorhome yet, likely by the Spring, and it will be in the 26' to 30' range. Need something to put my 2006 Heritage Softail Classic in. Have been looking at this website www.toycarrier.com Is this the same one you're talking about ? Or is the 'cruiser carrier' you are referring to something different ??

Just waiting to retire so I can enjoy my motorhome more!!

Good options, however, I want something that covers the bike therefore some type of enclosed trailer but nothing too large to haul.
