Looking for a hitch, one that can hold a bike rack. Thanks.

 

they have 'em on ebay for a bit over 100. They all seem to be the same model.

 

i wanna hitch so i can do this....

 

heh. that ain't ****. I could show you some **** I have done with my rx7 that would make your jaw drop.

 

Thanks, I was hopping for something used so it's cheaper, one last thing, I have an OEM MazdaSpeed kit, I hate to cut a hole on the rear bumper...but that's life...
I'm really getting into this bike riding thing but I don't want anything on the roof of the car, my car is also lowered... any realistic sugestions?

 

yeah, see that truck in the background... use it.

 

I would not cut up an aftermarket bumper unless it was a cheap knockoff. I would put a stock bumper on and cut that, or a knockoff aftermarket bumper. Keep your high dollar bumper in the garage for when you get tired of the bike riding phase and want to put it back on. :D

 

um, couldnt you just bike to wherever you're going to bike?

 

Closest trail park is 20 miles away, If I ride the bike there, no energy left for the park (maybe at a later time), The truck belongs to my mother and she does not drive manual (not that I want her to drive the 8 anyhow) No OEM bumper since the OEM is right behind the MazdaSpeed lower rear section plus I have an image to protect, I even got the bike to match the black and mazdapeed gray of the car, I'm thinking something custom that sits right below the bumper cover, I'll be willing to pay maybe $150 just to keep the look, any other 'realistic' ideas?

 

Find a friend who has a bigger car/jeep/truck/suv/mini van/anything but an 8

 

for no more than a bike weighs, I would find someone who does fabrication and have a quick-dismount bracket made. Maybe it could be made to go in the hole above the license plate, or completely underneath the bottom of the rear bumper. That damned big muffler right there makes things difficult, though.

I would NOT cut my bumper in an obvious place, though.

 

i say you take the bike appart and put it in your car. seems like it would be cheaper and easier. The frame should fit in the car if you do it carefully.

 

Thanks 4 all the tips, still no hitch.

 

quick release bike skewers, put the wheels in the trunk and the frame on a blanket in the pass seat. I do it all the time

 

whats wrong with the roof? that is really the only logical choice unless you think you are too weak to lift the bike up and down without scratching your car.

in that case you either need a lighter bike or you need to do some pushups.

 

That sounds a bit emotional kersh, May I call you 'kersh'? thanks for the sense of care. The bike is light(30lb or less). I'm trying to avoid causing any type of damage to the finish of the car, that's why I'm not going with a trunk mounted bike rack neither. Thanks again for caring kersh, je je!
