If you pull a trailer....
Just bought a 2012 Ultra Limited and I am looking to put a trailer hitch on it so I can pull my trailer. I am considering the one from Rivco. I also looked at the kuryakyn brand as well. Can anyone give some feedback on either of these? Thanks in advance.
J&P has a whole bunch. You want to decide if you want the receiver kind or the perm kind first.

Will a hitch void a bad radio?

It only voids the warranty if it's determined that towing the trailer was the reason for the damaged item. My service guy at the dealer told me that. I guess it would also depend on your dealer. For the amount of times I pull a trailer, don't think it would be an issue. Don't have that in writing but direct from his mouth.

I really like my Bushtec receiver hitch. When the hitch ball is removed you can't even tell I have a hitch installed on the bike.

Had a Hitch Doc on the '02 and just install one on our '12 Ultra. Drop the ball and you can hardly tell it's there. Quality hitch and great people to work with.

I'll add that their customer service is very good, too. I couldn't get the center section to fit - it was hitting the tri-bar light. When I called, there was some confusion, because they couldn't figure out why it didn't fit. So, they sent me a different version center section, at their expense, next day air. It still wasn't the right version, do I took some pictures of the two that I had and emailed them. They sent the only other version that it could have been, again next day on their dime.
Turned out that I had ordered the right version, they sent the right version, but the wrong piece was in the kit.
They were very apologetic for the inconvenience. Fortunately, I was dealing with this in the fall/winter, so no riding time was lost , and I wasn't trying to get this rig set up the day before a trip.
