| Hey folks from north Louisiana. I just bought a 2005 Silverwing with ABS and was wondering if anyone has a suggestion as to a carrier that could be attached to the back of a fifth wheel RV for my S/W. I know the bike is heavy but is this possible tow my bike when traveling?. |

| At 550 plus, it's too heavy to be put on a carrier, you'd need either a toy hauler RV or a trailer. |

| You could trade you fifth wheel RV for one with a rear cargo carrier With a ramp like the one that can carry a 4 wheeler in. Or get a Fab shop to make one from heavy wall 1.5" x 3" tubing that mounts under the RV frame with a 42" x 84" platform with a tire rail and front wheel stop and a rail ramp ,It would have to have about 12" ground clearance . You could also look for a drop down electric tailgate like the one for loading heavy pickup truck parts on.It could change the center balance of the fifth wheel .Your RV dealer could tell you If Its safe to do this with your RV. |
