Black Widow Motorcycle Hitch Carrier with Extra-Long 6FT Ramp Lightweight Aluminum 400 lb. Capacity Anti-Rattle Included Fits 2" Receiver

Arrived a day early, that was a good sign. The rack is very well made with nice welds and very sturdy. All nuts and bolts worked smoothly. my old steel rack was a back breaker; this is so light I can easily slip it on the hitch. (I'm 73 years old)Nice light 6 ft long ramp that fits snug on rack, so you have no worries about it slipping as you put the bike on.Very happy with purchase.

Easy to assemble. Very sturdy. Built well. The one i bought was missing one bolt seems strong enough without it.

Works like a charm. The only thing I don't like is it needs more points to attach straps to.

Overall, this seems like a good carrier for my TW200. I was pretty disappointed in the quality of the welds between the main supports and the cross braces that the bike sits on. They are not pretty, but they will likely do the job. It came with all of the hardware and pieces. The instructions were pretty straight forward and logical. With a basic socket set it can be assembled by one person. It’s awkward, but not heavy to handle when installing and removing it from the receiver on my truck. I have a 2 1/2” receiver on my Ram 2500 which requires me to use a 2 1/2” to 2” reducer since this is made for a 2” receiver. The anti-wobble accessory seems to do the job, just don’t over tighten as the steel plate the four bolts thread into isn’t very thick. I added two ratchet straps between the outside of the carrier and the tow hook rings on my receiver to assist in stabilizing the bike going down the road, not sure if they really do anything. I test drove this set up all over town for a shake down run and the anti wobble bolts did stay tight, the assembly was still solidly assembled (nothing loosened up, and all of the straps kept the bike secure.). It does bounce around an unsettling amount at times when crossing rough terrain/rail road tracks/etc. but maybe that is to be expected and nothing to worry about. I’m heading up to the Keweenaw Peninsula and hauling my T-Dub up there and back. I’m hoping this carrier will do the job and last for many years.

sturdy, light, love it. the ramp is a great length and while I have a fairly high hitch still makes it very manageable to load the bike. hitch anti rattle doesnt stop it from moving completely but does stop you from checking every time it jiggles a litte. i also used turnbuckles for the pegs and it really helps with the stability and ease of securing the bike.

Remembering old 'Reviews', I read about this, I was VERY pleasantly surprised to observe that the company has responded to and corrected past criticisms. This carrier seems to have been in production a LONG time (a decade?) and has been refined and improved with time.The carrier step welds are as good as I've seen on aluminum. Hardware is Grade 8.8. The steel post and brackets are nicely painted and coated. This is a proven, strong, lightweight design.I'm relieved (with the 'risk') I took, delighted ... and ` am not paid or connected with 'Black Widow' in any way. I wouldn't hesitate to order another ... or to recommend it to anyone else.

As previously stated by others the latest fabricated carrier parts are as you would expect and appreciate.The sound welding is as good as you could expect and want for aluminum. I have many years of metal fabrication experience and appreciate good profile and welding technique.All parts were available, and all bolt holes were located exactly where required.I would recommend to the supplier or fabricator to also band the bolt on support scab plates to the main aluminum frame. They were loose and had cut the bolt bag causing parts to be possibly lost.Very happy with the easy assembly and stoutness of the assembly.

I'm much more impressed with this hitch carrier than I thought I would be. It's well-built and seems like it will hold up well. It carries my 300 lb KLX 230s with zero issues and doesn't rock side-to-side, even when traveling at moderate speeds on rough gravel roads. Be sure to use the included hitch stabilizer, though. The included ramp is a little thin, but is easy to use for loading and unloading. The tie-down points are also good and sturdy. While it hauls my 300 lb bike with no issues, I don't know if I'd push my luck with a heavier bike.
