ANSWER: Our double motorcycle carrier does not have a towing feature at all.
We have 2 single models that have towing features. One is the VH-55 RO that has a 500 lbs carrying capacity and the VH-SPORT Ro that has a 600lbs carrying capacity.
You will not want to exceed the carrying capacity of the carrier. If your bike weighs 300 lbs and you purchase the VH-55 RO then you would have 200lbs of tongue weight remaining behind the carrier for your trailer.
ANSWER: I am sorry, but we do not have any carrier that can support that amount of tongue weight.
ANSWER: The VH-90 atv carrier can not tow behind it. This carrier extends too far out from the vehicle to allow for towing.
ANSWER: The VH-SPORT carrier is designed to safely carry 600 lbs. Most Class III hitches are rated for 500 lbs. The max towing weight, regardless of your vehicle, is 3000 lbs.
ANSWER: I don’t have a carrier for two bikes only one bike: VH-55 RO. The VH-55 DM RO does NOT have a towing option.

ANSWER: People generally purchase the VH-55 RO carrier for the Vespas. This carrier isn’t that much more expensive than the VH-50cc but has a lot more features available. Like the towing feature and it can carry twice the weight. It also has a longer and wider rail to allow for a larger bike if you ever get something larger. We do not have a carrying capacity chart for the VH-50cc but it would weigh about 15 lbs less than the VH-55.
REPLY: ….The question is the Vespa weighs more than the 233 lbs that the chart indicates for a level ride with the VH-55 carrier. Since the center rail on the VH-50cc is 3 inches closer to the hitch pin and since the VH-50 is 15 lbs lighter would it better handle the 246 lbs of the Vespa? Would you please ask one of your engineers for their opinion to help me determine which to purchase.
ANSWER REPLY: …..You will not be able to notice the difference in weight between the 2 carriers. The VH-55 is what Vespa owners have been purchasing and seem to prefer. The VH-55 has a completely adjustable rail, so you can move it as close to the vehicle as possible. The VH-50cc does not have any adjustment.
The VH-55 RO is the best fit for you. The “RO” stands for ramp option if you do not order “RO” then you will not get the ramp.

ANSWER: I do not have any information for that year of truck. http://versahaul.com/vehiclecarrycapacity.php Many people do add tail lights to the carrier. The tail light are sold in 2 models. The VH-TK or the VH-TK LP and the only difference in the 2 is the VH-TK LP comes with a license plate light as well. If your want to install your license plate behind the carrier then you must have a light on it. Many cases the license plate is blocked by the bike. The VH-TK runs $46.00 and VH-TK LP runs $59.99 shipped within the continental U.S.
ANSWER: We have had customers use the Honda Reflex on our VH-55 and it was very tight. We suggest using the VH-SPORT. The VH-SPORT has a longer rail allowing for the weight to be adjusted better on the rail. With the weight being mostly in the rear this carrier allows the weight to be further forward and closer to the main tube. Hope this helps.
ANSWER: The versahaul is 111 lbs so you will have enough capacity left for a 239 lbs bike.
