1. Do not exceed 10% of vehicle’s towing capacity.
The combined weight of the MotoTote and your motorcycle should not exceed 10% of your vehicle’s
towing capacity.
CAUTION: Exceeding 10% of your vehicle’s towing capacity could cause unsafe conditions
including degradation of vehicle handling and steering.
To calculate the maximum weight capacity for your vehicle divide your vehicle’s towing capacity by
10 and then subtract 60 lbs. (27 kgs.)
Example: 5000 lbs. (2273 kg) towing capacity divided by 10 = 500 lbs. (227 kg) minus MotoTote
weight of 60 lbs. (27 kg) = 440 lbs. (200 kg). This 440 lbs is the maximum tongue weight your vehi-
cle can safely haul.
2. Do
not exceed hitch tongue weight capacity.
For vehicles with an aftermarket hitch, also ensure the combined weight of the MotoTote and your
motorcycle do not exceed your hitch’s tongue weight capacity. If your aftermarket hitches capacity
differs from 10% of your vehicles towing capacity, base your maximum weight capacity off the lower
value of the two minus the weight of the MotoTote at 60 lbs. (27 kgs).
CAUTION: Exceeding your hitch’s tongue weight capacity could damage the hitch or vehicle
frame.
3. Do
not exceed MotoTote weight capacity.
The weight of your motorcycle should not exceed the weight capacity of your MotoTote motorcycle
hitch carrier as follows: m3 = 500 lbs. (227 kgs.), Sport/Max/Max+ = 600 lbs. (273 kgs.)
