Has anyone got one of these and if so do you like it.
I want to build one but want all the Pro's and Con's
The company that makes them says you can not tow
a trike.?
I would be towing a 2002 Honda Silver wing Trike.
I would like to know why.

You will be ruining your tranny, engine must be running to lube gears on a Honda!

What gears it is a belt drive auto. ?
Even if it had a tranny and it was in neutral the rear wheel is free wheeling. Yes or No
With a belt drive the belt is still spinning against the whatever is at the front end of the drive. Without the engine running I would suspect the front sheave is not spinning or the belt is spinning it which in turn is spinning whatever drive system it has.
With a tranny, you are still spinning the internals of the transmission without benefit of lubrication which also keeps the parts cool.
Years ago these bumper pulls were designed primarily for dirt bikes hauled short distances. The other problem occurs when you hit a big bump and the tranny falls into gear. Lots of pieces left on the road.
Unless you can completely de-couple the rear wheel from the drive train I would not do it. But, that's just cautious me. Good luck.
