    To be honest, I wanted a DR650. After riding this bike, I have no complaints. It will be perfect for my uses. And the price was too good to pass up :D

    Yeah, Mike did a great job. I'm good to not blur a camera photo :rofl:

    How do you guys like those receiver hitch bike racks? Easy to load/unload? My truck sits pretty high but it looks like the best way to carry my bike when the topper is on.

    Here's mine,

    I haven't had any problems with mine. I did remove the front wheel clamps. They were a pain in the ass and the wheel falls far enough down that after ratchetting it down, they aren't needed.

    I guess my main concern is how steep the ramp would be getting the bike up and down. For trailers, I use an 8" drop hitch and they're still nose-high. The HC bumper put the hitch behind the license plate, it is way up there.

    I'm still at stock height, so I'm no help there. I would like to get a HC bumper, but I want to keep the tow hitch in the stock position. I use my hitch more than I need the extra clearance of it being behind the tag.

    It'll go places.

    But I want to take my bike, too. I just did Moab and other parts of Utah in March and there were some crazy good places to ride if I could have packed the bike out there.

    Rack works pretty well. Never had the bike fall off. Lol. But I have a couple of ways to carry bikes due to the trailer. Check this out. 7 state run with this setup.

    Check out this thing. Uses a bottle jack to raise/lower the bike so you shouldn't have any height issues.

    I'm looking into getting one myself at stock height. I plan on using it as a workstand for my bike.

    They still make a pw-50 that’s a TTR-50E.

    They make two 50cc bikes. That one wasn’t much more expensive and had some features I liked more. It has an electric start, it’s a 4-stroke engine, and has another inch or so of suspension travel.
