It's fairly "bouncy" - but I've hauled the scooter for many thousands of KM's and had no issues. I think the steel racks have a higher weight rating, compared to the aluminum ones.

My hitch receiver is sloped slightly (you may see it in some of the pics) towards the rear - which gives me some clearance issues from time to time. I'd like to get it levelled and re-welded, but it's not very high up on the priority list...

I don't like the degradation of the handling when the scooter is on the hitch. I notice it a lot - others have said they don't. YMMV
