Default Need to fit a crf50 in my s2000

Lol... I want to stunt again since recovering from numerous surgeries. I can't quite take it to the big bikes anymore says the Doc but I figure I'll just get another honda 50. I was about to go buck wild and buy one the other day along with big bars, handbrake, the whole nine yards but then I remembered... I drive a s2000.

What can I do to make this work ????

I found a few hitch setups. Supposedly these can be taken off via pins leaving only the brakets so it doesn't look silly. If I went this way I could get a small trailer.

The other thing I though about is getting a tire rack/rail thing for the trunk and laying the 50 on it. It's easy to take the handle bars off the clamp so they won't stick through the rails and hit the trunk. My question here is can the rail/trunk support the bike? It's about 90 lbs or so.

Thanks in advance!

This is how you make it work:

Dig through your records and find your car title. Put my name next to "purchaser" (just bear with me) and write down the appropriate mileage. I"ll put your name next to "purchaser" on the title of my ford ranger. We'll meet somewhere, and you take my truck and I take your car.

Problem solved.

"In your S2000"? That's not possible.

Anyway, the only real solution is to go the hitch route. I have a Chase Race hitch and I use it to haul my bikes around. It's very sturdy. You could then go to Harbor Freight or something and pick up a small trailer for <$300 to pull your Honda.

I'd go for the hitch. You don't even need a trailer, especially with just a 50:





Hell, you don't even need a hitch:

If this is only to get the thing home:

1. Rent a minivan
2. Take out back seats.
3. Profit!
