Thumbs up

The Kuryakin hitch has worked fine for 2+ years on my RG at less than 1/2 of the cost of the fancy 500+ dollar hitch.

I thought they were all too pricy for me, so I fabracated my own, patterned after the Mchitch. Cost of materials including nuts and bolts was less than $25.00.

They sure mark em up a lot.

+1 on bushtec, nearly invisible with receiver out and no rattle. Costly but worth it.

I've been happy with my shiny chrome N-Line receiver hitch.

+1 on MC Hitch. Pros: With the receiver you don't have the ball sticking out there when you're not pulling the trailer. And it's a snap to install (and remove if your dealer has warranty issues because you pull a trailer...) Cons: you can't brag about all the money you spent.

I use a KromeWerks. Got it from my local Indy for not much over cost. It doubles as a flag mount for PGR. I run a 3/4' threaded rod, double nutted (one above, one below) and use 3/4" electrical conduit for the flag pole.
