Default Trailer hitch assembly for Softail?

One of the small motorcycle trailers would be just right for my needs (camping, fishing). But first, I have to find an after-market trailer hitch assembly for my Softail, hopefully one that I can easily install and remove as needed. Any sources? Home-brew ones I've seen look poorly at best. Thanks.

looks nice when taking a trip the bags will cover the brackets and i bet i could get them chrome or painted or wrapped in leather also.

My buddy is looking to get this one. The video is for an Electraglide but they have them for softails too. Very clean looking:

Looks like it a different setup for the softails. Doesn't have a removable ball like the tourer model.

If your looking for a really nice hitch check inline trailer they make a beautiful hitch and it installs easily. The one for a softail it's mounts to the frame all chrome and takes a 1 1/4 stinger which you can remove. Every other hitch I've seen looks like junk compared to there's. It will take all the tung weight your bike can handle. There not cheap but there worth the money.

Default Hitch for Deuce

Did you find a hitch for your Deuce and if so which one?
Any other suggestions for me and my 2000 Deuce?
Thanks
