you can carry it on the back if your hitch is of good quaility. just be sure the moped is secured with good tie downs. i have carried bikes all over the country and have never lost any. i always do a walk around every time i stop
That's exactly what I wanted to use but I have read somewhere not for use on back of trailer. They are real slick. I would think if a heavy duty class 3 or 4 hitch was welded to my frame on my 5th wheel and then heavy duty motorcycle straps were t all 4 corners of scooter I would be ok. But then what the heck do I know. I am new to this and don't want to injure someone behind me if things go wrong.

Well I guess you convinced me. I will have a professional weld a hitch to the back then. Thanks

Good idea,this spring I watched a class C pull into the campground dragging his bicycles from his broken bumper mounted hitch. Ouch

I am waiting on delivery of my 2 person scooter that will be carried on my frame mounted carrier.
