QUESTION: I have a Suzuki Burgman 400 cc that weighs 500 lbs. The wheelbase is 62.4 inches, width is 32.5 inches, seat height is 28 inches. What carrier do you recommend for a x/c trip in our 2002 Winnebago Adventurer.

ANSWER: The VH-SPORT RO model will be the best carrier for your Burgman scooter. This has a 600 lbs carrying capacity and has a 77.5″ long rail.  Dimensions are listed on http://versahaul.com/vhsportro.php

Please visit the above link for vehicle and hitch limitations.

Check that your hitch is not recessed behind your motorhome’s bumper or that a ladder or spare tire is in the way. The VH-SPORT can be customized to have a longer 30” main tube to avoid obstacles.  Usually this is not necessary.  http://versahaul.com/vhCustom.php

The exhaust from a Diesel Pusher may require the purchase of a longer main tube because the hot exhaust may damage the paint of the tie-down tube.
