Hitch for Touring?

[KYBubblehead]

I know, somewhere on here, a reader modified a hitch by moving the drawbar, to fit above the center exhaust. I've tried 'Search' with no success.... can someone help a fella out?

Myself and another on here has done it. I’m doing another one for a friend right now. The only issue is the hitch pin is very close to the tips. The bike racks I use don’t need a pin (1up and Thule XT2 Pro). Eventually I will make a custom pin.

Seems like too much work. I did add a hitch to a Mini Cooper with dual exhaust but they have a way to make it work as an option. For bikes? I would use the Hatch for the Madone or Brompton. Or roof rack. I always fear getting rear ended when hauling a bike. Can't legally tow with out chains.
