today i received a deceptively heavy package in the mail. it turned out to be my new motorcycle carrier, an ultimate mx hauler. this thing, if it works as advertised, will enable me to load my klx250s easily and safely onto the back of my van, without help from others. installing it went smoothly until one of the machine screws broke while tightening it, so i'm now taking a dinner break after returning from the hardware store to get a replacement screw.
the umxh was fairly expensive, but hopefully it will do the job. so far, it looks good. it has a hydraulic jack for raising and lowering the platform that the bike rests on, and i purchased the optional locking pin (with a key) and cable for some theft protection.
once i get it installed, i'll return with news... hopefully of the good kind.
