Yep heard MOCO will diddle with warr if you have hitch
Some dealers will not install them...... one near me

Me, I'm not into them; but others have a great time with em
It's all with what blows your dress up

I have one of these.

Works great, not issues. The wiring harness is perfect plug n play. Price is good.

Bought the Kuryakyn hitch and their trailer harness from J&P two years ago for a trip to Sturgis. Works well and I have no complaints about either item. Good service from J&P too.

I have had 2 of these on different bikes so I must like them. They are very minimalist and made and sold directly by a small manufacture. The guy’s name is Todd and was helpful when I called him with an install problem with the wiring harness.

I think that the voiding the warranty problem is over blown. They certainly could if it could be proven that towing a trailer caused the problem but my experience is otherwise.

One year I was traveling and the primary bearing went out. I rode into the nearest dealer with the trailer in tow and the tech confirmed the problem in the parking lot just by listening to it. He told me I would have to disconnect the trailer and leave it in the parking lot because there was no room for it in the shop. And this was with a failure in the drive-line - something that arguably could be caused by trailer towing.
