#486806 Crazyron1369 (User) The first scratch hurts the most. Gold Boarder Posts: 673 Re:Ironman's making a hitch 1 Year ago   Do a Google search for Yamaha Roadstar trailer hitch. There are at least two companies making them.   Logged     Ride hard Die hard Ron   The administrator has disabled public write access. #486877 Darn (User) Don't forget, Never forget.

I've seen them, they are "Bolted" together, the one Ironman made for me was all one piece with solid welds all around. Probably one of the most solid parts on the rear of the bike.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #486883 Crazyron1369 (User) The first scratch hurts the most. Gold Boarder Posts: 673 Re:Ironman's making a hitch 1 Year ago   That's great Darn, but he isn't making them anymore. Is he? I just thought I'd let those guys that want a hitch know they can find them if they look.   Logged     Ride hard Die hard Ron   The administrator has disabled public write access. #486892 icatchemall (User) Everyone Die's...but not Everyone Live's Expert Boarder Posts: 482 Re:Ironman's making a hitch 1 Year ago   Here is a hitch I have been working on. As ironman said a lot of work is in to making one. Here are some final pic's tested out last week and alls well. I welded mine on and also beef up the sub frame (Thanks Curt for the info) I do have someone that will laser all my parts.   Logged     Sig Pic deleted - larger than 450 pixels and 50 KB   The administrator has disabled public write access. #486897 ironman (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3422 Re:Ironman's making a hitch 1 Year ago   icatchemall wrote: Here is a hitch I have been working on.

Don't get me wrong, if you can't find a welded up one, or get one made like icatchemall did, the bolted on ones will probably do the trick and get you "Hooked" up (pun intended) If I bought a bolted up one, I would probably put it on, get it adjusted to the correct size I need and take it off in one piece and have it welded up to make it stronger, so I wouldn't spend extra on the "Chrome" model if you know what I mean.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #487334 greyphart (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 5802 Re:Ironman's making a hitch 1 Year ago   Modified my subframe for this set-up. Added a cross over piece towards the back for extra stability. Also welded gussets up top for strength. Receiver is 3/4" ID and sits just inside the fender lip.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #487657 Deedot (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 507 Re:Ironman's making a hitch 1 Year ago   icatchemall wrote: Here is a hitch I have been working on.

Any chance you'd share them for those of us DIY types that don't have time to do it ALL ourselves? I'm sure I could find a place locally to laser those parts out, then I could fit them and weld 'em up! Thanks! If you have those plans in digital format and are willing to share, I can PM you my email address.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #507036 armybronco (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 176 Re:Ironman's making a hitch 11 Months, 1 Week ago   I know that this is an old post/thread but I would love to get some plans from someone on RSC for a DIY hitch!!!!

Platinum Boarder Posts: 8089 Re:Ironman's making a hitch 11 Months, 1 Week ago   Ummm... just look at the previous posts?? Sorry, but it doesn't get much more explicit than that.. I'm not trying to be a smart Arse... but if you pull your rear fender, and remove the subframe, you will be able to see how much room you have, just draw it out on some cardboard for each side, match them up, and cut them out.   Logged     Last Edit: 2012/06/21 20:05 By Darn.     The administrator has disabled public write access.
