Traveling with a scooter on Class C
We are thinking of attaching a Honda Reflex 250 on our Sunseeker as we travel around. Any folks out there with scooters or motorcycles that can tell us how that works out? Thanks, Lee

My Winn B+ has a hitch rating of #350 downforce. Don't know what your Sunseeker is rated at, but I'm guessing your Honda is around #400 plus the weight of the rack. I would try to borrow a rack and see how it handles. On a MH this problem is exaggerated by the long distance between the rear axle and the hitch. Not so much on a PU or van.
I used to carry a Honda 100 dirtbike, I think I'm around #225 total. It's enough weight that I had to pump up the airbags and I could feel a difference in handling (but not bad).
Currently, I have an enclosed box trailer to carry the toys. What's nice about the trailer is your bike is out of sight and it doesn't get covered with dirt (it will on the back of your MH). I also use it to store the bike(s) in the back yard saving space in my garage.
