Not to resurrect this thread from the dead, but what do you think to load capacity is for these hitches? I would love to have the ability to trailer my motorcycle to the track. Was thinking something like this for my 430 lb s1000rr:

The load carrying capacity of the Curt 11367 hitch is 2000LB trailer weight and 200 LB tongue weight.

Vert install with hitch riser,
Convertible install, took about 3 hours, easy day, no issues.
I like my bikes to ride a bit higher, and also have an existing 2" rack. Just had to drill a second hole in the riser as shown. Riser comes off, don't leave it on. I have a steep driveway dip, plenty of clearance, not even close. |

Thank you horsepower_and_hounds!
Bought and installed the Curt 11367 from etrailer. A couple comments: Jacking up the car like you show would make things easier but I didn't and all went fine. I did not unbolt/lower the exhaust nor remove the heat shield. The hitch fit perfectly without enlarging the bolt holes, it could move right to left about 3/8". Just centered it and torqued the bolts. Trim the heat shield with tin snips at the right and left corners for clearance. In hindsight maybe reforming the heat shield corners (hammer and dolly) would be better. I left the heat shield touching the back of the receiver (at the center), it doesn't rattle. There is a lot of clearance to the muffler... no concerns. I have the stock diffuser, it did not need trimming. Sorry the picture rotates when posted. In this picture the hitch is pushed all the way to the drivers side. Note where I cut the hea tshield. Thanks again! |

Any problems with the 11367 fitting with the bumpers on a 228 with M Sport? I'd imagine the bumper drops down about the same as a normal M235. Don't mind the cutting. Just don't want surprises.

Great thread! it was exactly what I was looking for.
I'm going to be using this hitch to tow my motorcycle on a trailer for track days. The hitch is rated for 2,000 lbs. gross trailer weight but there's no specifications from BMW regarding the M235i. Has anyone successfully towed a trailer on an M235i? Just want to make sure that it's not going to damage the car. Most of the thread seems to be about installing bike racks and hence this question. |
