Anyone towing with a Honda Ridgeline?
Now by "towing" I m talking pretty lightweight, plan to tow my 10' {14' overall} cargo trailer to haul my Indian Springfield - 862#, bike and trailer 2,220# or my Polaris Razr 570 - RZR and trailer 2,...

I am sorry you must not have saw the fine detail on the rules for owning an Indian. It states that "during such time as you are owning, in possession of or even cosigned for an Indian Motorcycle or a reasonable copy there of, you are forbade from driving/towing such motorcycle with a Honda Ridgeline or being in possession of or driving a Toyota Prius. Violations of this rule require pulling of man card, relinquishing control of Indian Motorcycle until such time as you have come to your senses". I would suggest seeing your doctor and perhaps he/she can adjust your T levels to keep you from violating said terms of ownership. The upside is there a countless other tow vehicles to choose from to maintain compliance.
Now was that nice? You made me spit coffee all over my computer screen... LMAO! Since you get extra Man Card points when you ride the Indian 18,000+ miles a year methinks I am still good to go. :B
Here is my towing set up {taken at Buckskin Mountain SP on the Colorado River last January}:
The V-10 in our 24' C has handled it quite well but I am looking forward to utilizing our new Ridgeline as well. For day trips with the RZR using the Ridgeline will be a better combination. On longer trips to visit our friends {up in Angel Fire NM} will probably see the RL used as we don't need the accommodations of the coach at their house.
I need to go to a 4" drop for the hitch to get the trailer level at 16" but have one out in the garage. I'll post a couple of pics when I get around to hooking up the trailer. I've been told to log 500 - 1,000 miles before towing so am in no hurry.
