Hesitant at first, but now I'm 100% sold
So, I chose this over getting a trailer to haul my bike because trailers require a tag, have tires that can fail, and take a lot of room for storage. So advantage black widow As far as fitment, it was perfect on my Grand Cherokee. Your hitches tongue rating is normally 10-15% of max towing capacity. So if your vehicle can tow 6000lbs then you can use this without worry. My Jeep handled it beautifully. This carrier is very sturdy. I have no doubts after driving 6 hours with my 400lb baby hanging off the back. She stayed solid. I cringed at every pothole and bump but she never moved. Pros: easy assembly. Solid construction. Low loading height which makes for much easier loading/unloading. For a small bike like mine, I was able to do it solo Cons: the bike will block your tailights. I plan to add lights to mine for future trips. The ramp needs grip tape. 3m 2" grip tape for $11 solved that. The ramp in it's stowed position is noisy, but a couple of felt washers solved that. Not perfect, but absolutely deserves 5 stars for making bike transport an easy experience

Great hauler. No complaints.
This thing works really well. The only downside thus far is the set-screw (bolt) system that tightens the unit to your hitch to reduce tilting and bouncing. The bolts that are intended for that purpose (like all of the hardware in the kit) are a much cheaper grade of bolt and will bend. I replaced them with grade 8 bolts with decent success. Plan to tighten them a time or two on a long trip, as it’s not a perfect system. I have hauled my KTM 1190 ADV on a couple of long trips and am happy with it. (Slightly under 500lbs) It’s pretty easy to load a bike on by yourself, though you’ll want to put some kind of grip tape on the ramp before you use it. I also got a set of magnetic trailer lights to stick to the carrier as my tail lights are at least partially blocked when the bike is on there. A final note: this thing is heavy. Don’t try to put it on your hitch by yourself if you’re a smaller person.

Great bike carrier, highly recommend!
This carrier gets the job done at the right price point. Its look and weight are just like that of other on the market. The easy of use and quality is good. A little wobbly depending on how heavy the bike is. Overall very good product.

Cheap Chinese product
I bought this specific product in part because it was able to be delivered by a certain date for a trip. Item arrived on time but not only was the box damaged and had holes in it but it was missing the hardware to assemble. I originally thought it was missing due to the hole in the box however when I unboxed the product it was scratched and looked like it had been used. So I had to procure the hardware myself to assemble it most of the holes were not drilled/punched so I had to do that myself. The piece that fits into the receiver was much smaller and even with a receiver rattle plate, it still moved around quite a lot. Overall not a quality hitch mount motorcycle hauler for the price point. Want to return it but the shipping will be more than I paid.

1600 Mile Trip
I just finished a drive from Monterey California to San Angelo Texas using the carrier to haul my son’s 2017 Thruxton on the back of my 2003 Tahoe. I read several reviews on several carriers before I decided to go with this one and I was still admittedly nervous about hauling his bike halfway across the country on a carrier. Many of the reviews I read addressed the packaging and the contents being loose or missing. The box that I received was in perfect condition and nothing at all was missing. I found the assembly to be quite easy. I did two things with the carrier before we used it and they were both based on other reviews. I added nonskid tape to the ramp and I moved the carrier forward in my hitch and drilled a new hole for the hitch mounting bolt. I could only move it forward about five inches and I can’t say for sure how much difference it really made but reducing a 450 pound lever even just a little bit made me feel better. I certainly didn’t lose anything by doing it. Before I went to California I tested the carrier with his 1980 Yamaha XS650. I loaded it by myself by having it in first gear and walked it up the ramp. I also unloaded it by myself. Loading the Thruxton with two of us was much easier but loading the Yamaha by myself wasn’t a huge deal either. We strapped the bike down using the four tie down points but also added a couple of other straps just for peace of mind. The first 100 miles or so were a little unnerving and we stopped several times to make sure everything was secure. The roads varied from nice flat highways to a handful of two lane bumpy/undulating roads. For the most part, I did the speed limit on the open highway but I did slow down within reason when the roads were less than ideal. We checked the bike at every gas/overnight stop and never had any problems. It remained solid the entire trip and there are no signs of any issues with the carrier. I would add that the front of the Tahoe was naturally a little “light” but I completely expected that with the weight of the bike and another 500 plus pounds of cargo inside. I used magnetic lights because the bike pretty much covered the Tahoe’s rear lights and I also mounted the license plate on the carrier just to avoid any issues with law enforcement. There is no doubt that it took some getting used to but the further we went the more confidence I had in the entire set up. I’d do it again without hesitation.

Great product for the money, but check before assembly
Great hitch carrier for the money. A bit heavy for single use and needs ample room for the ramp. The ramp in the picture is not the ramp I received, but the solid ramp was sturdy and had grip material on it. It will comfortably haul a 300-400lb bike. I had minimal sway on it, and was confident nothing. Will happen. Very stable product. Prior to assembling the whole thing, check if the ramp fits in the carrier, mine did not and I requested a replacement. That's another story.
