The time has come to start looking for a trailer hitch for my 2010 Ultra Classic. Warrantee ends next summer and I want to tow my Aspen Sentry tent trailer around with me again. I towed it across Canada twice in 09 with my VTX 1300 using a Hitch Doctor hidden hitch. I've also looked at Rivco, Khrome Werks and Kuryakyn. I like some of the wiring options available but would like to hear other's opinions on the different hitches available.
I bought a MC hitch .found there web site on the net.they also sell wiring harnesses for specific bike models.ck there web site out. Pretty reasonably priced I thought.
I've always used HitchDoc. They make a nice hitch.

I have seen photos of most hitch models on their websites but HitchDoctor doesn't have photos. Is there any chance you have a photo of the HitchDoctor on your bike with the wiring connection for me to see? I imagine it wouldn't be much different than on my VTX but then again, maybe it is.
Thanks roadkil1995 for you response too. I've been checking out their website.
I've been more than happy with my Khrome Werks receiver hitch. Tows an overloaded N-Line behind my '09 Street Glide with no issues, and hides considerably better than most hitches when not in use.

This is about as clear as I can get. The dealer did the wiring for me as I needed a second plug for the light bar and siren.

Thanks for posting the photo and to all for their responses. I guess it will still be on me to select the hitch that looks the best, comes to BC at a good price and reviews well.
Also looks like I need to upgrade my membership in order to see the photo, LOL.

Now when I go to my other Mac (desktop) I get a thumbnail and it opens just fine. Go figure. Thanks again.
I had a hitchdoc hidden hitch on 2 Ultra's with many problem free miles. My mchitch broke after just two years on the bike and really only towing this past year.
Hitchdoc is supported by the frame better than the mchitch in my opinion, look where they each attach to the bike
