    I would be worried about it causing damage to the transmissions. With the front end up in the air and the transmission spinning at full speed it may be starved for oil circulation for long hauls.

    I would only use it on a chain driven bike with the chain removed.

    Just like when towing a car/truck behind a RV or something you should get a drive shaft lock out so you don't damage the transmission.

        Yeah, I had been debating between the two; Undertaker vis the Joe Hauler, as for emergency towing if it ever needed... but that's about as far as I would go and certainly not for long distant hauler of my bike.

        Would love to hear if someone on the broad have experienced them.

            Cars come with a gross towing weight. Check the owners manual or the sticker on the inside of the driver's door. I'd be willing to bet that the towing capacity of your car is big enough for a trailer and a bike.

            Heck, Sky and Ron towed both their bikes down in a trailer with their 4 cyl.
