    Has anyone tried towing a mototote (or similar) hitch carrier. basically a small motorcycle (250lbs) on the hitch? I unfortunately had the factory hitch installed and didn't know it was only 100lbs tongue weight. The Curt hitch has a tongue weight of 500lbs but will that be ok for a vehicle that...

    Hey folks, manual 2004 owner here. I would like to attach a Coleman mini bike to my CRV. It's pretty obvious that the 2004 CRV isn't really meant to haul things with it's 2.4 engine. However, I would like to attach a 2-inch hitch, and toss a cargo carrier on. The purpose of this as the title...

    I know similar questions have been asked on other threads, but I couldn't find what I was looking for... We have a 2019 Honda CR-V LX and we're looking for a Hitch to install to hold a Thule 4 bike rack. Local Honda dealer said they would sell me a hitch 1.25" inch hitch for ~$400. We're...
  5. Rails, Roof Racks, Hitches, & Towing
    Hello, When I recently leased a 2021 model, I asked to have a hitch added in order to carry 3-4 bikes with a hitch rack. The part added was the Honda OEM hitch for the CRV, which is only a 1.25 inch hitch, and i believe it is only a Class 1 hitch, though no one at the dealership was able to...

    Hi friends - I drove a 2010 Honda Insight off the lot new in 2010 (and nearly into the ground with 210,926 miles!) then just a few days ago traded up to a 2021 CR-V EX w/ AWD. I got a lot of value out of the Honda Insight forums as I diagnosed various things over the years so I am excited to be...

    Hey guys, which is a better option, generic vs original? With the original, there is no problem with the rear door foot activation system. With the UHaul they mentioned this could be affected, but to what extend? Any recommendations? BTW I only plan to use it for a bike rack. Yag
  8. Gen 2 CR-V: 2002-2006 (UK 2002-2007)
    Hi, I'm thinking of getting a trailer hitch for my 2004 CRV - it has 185,000 km on it. What are the pros and cons of having a hitch? How does this affect - MPG, rear crash rating, utility, weight (Rear droop), etc. All responses are welcome
  9. Rails, Roof Racks, Hitches, & Towing
    Hi Everyone, I was hoping to get a recommendation on what class Hitch I should install on my CRV. I keep reading online about Class III but based on the specs that's massive overkill since the car can only tow 1500 lbs and a class III is rated for 3500-8000 lbs! I am hoping to buy a jet ski...

    Hi all, I have a 2018 EX 1.5 Turbo AWD. I recently installed a hitch for towing a small utility trailer or motorcycle trailer if the need ever arises. Just wondering if anyone knows of a place where you can buy some kind of air lift suspension that could either fit inside the rear coils or...
  11. Rails, Roof Racks, Hitches, & Towing
    I have a 2018 Touring and I want to add a hitch. I've pretty much narrowed it down to the DrawTite or the Curt. The DrawTite is a little cheaper and slightly easier to install, but the Curt intalls higher, behind the bumper and my wife prefers that. From what I've read, the DrawTite is less...

    Hello, * I'm from Paraguay, South America. I decided to install the original Honda trailer hitch and harness. I bought both and on the weekend proceeded to the installation. With the trailer hitch I had no problems and I was able to follow the instructions step by step. When I try to...

    I'm going to buy a 2019 CR-V, EX trim over the next week or two. I'd like to be able to put as a big a box as I can get away with on the roof, ideally in a configuration where there would be room for both the box and a canoe (or a bike.). I assume this may necessitate crossbars that stick out a...

    Just thought I would share a couple pics of my hitch that I installed the other day. Install was pretty straight forward - I also swapped the tailgate kick sensor for the hitch compatible version. Can't wait for the warmer weather to put my bike rack on and hit the trails!!

    I have a 2006 CRV and recently put a 2" receiver on it and now find out that the uni-body won't support the weight of what I need to use it for. Does anyone KNOW of a way to strengthen the frame?
