Technology & Features
HitchLift Receiver Tube
Innovative 2" receiver tube counteracts common vehicle hitch droop with a slight upward bend, ensuring that the rack is angled correctly from the back of the vehicle. Provides additional ground clearance, attachment of ramp and distance from vehicle adjustability.
MTX Platform
Heavy-duty steel main support connects to 2" receivers, hauls up to 500 lbs. (227 kgs.), supports track, chock, orientation, and distance from vehicle adjustability, alongside the attachment of innovative components.
StableStop Chock
Adjustable two-piece front tire mount locks tires up to 4.75" (120 mm) wide into track, maximizes support, and helps balance the bike upright while securing tie-downs.
Angled Steel Track
Angled track wedges rear tire sizes up to 6" (152 mm) wide into track and accommodates up to 65" (165 cm) wheelbases.
BroadPull Arm
Patented front tie-down arm provides main support for motorcycle stabilization. Rear tie down arm prevents rear tire from bouncing out of track.
EasyLoad Ramp
A long webbed steel ramp increases tire's traction and eases the loading angle. Ramp hooks into tire track and will not disengage during loading.

"I purchased an offshore model first thinking they would all be the same, but it was a bad assumption on my part. The MotoTote carrier is substantially better. "
It’s kind of pricey, but well worth it. Super easy to load and unload my Honda CRF 300 L. Very stable in transit.

Great design, rough shipping.
I love the thoughtful design that went into this. It's very smart, adjustable, and reasonably light for what it can carry. The packaging and directions were thorough, nicely done.
The only negative is that there a fair amount of damage from what I assume is shipping. The main rail got dented and there are several scratches despite each piece being wrapped in protective wrap. One corner had been scraped hard enough to have sharp metal burrs that I cut myself on. I also struggled to get the bolts tight enough for it to not wiggle. It took a lot more torque than was recommended. Still, the design of this seems excellent compared to alternative products and I'm happy I bought it.

Well bulit and easy to use
I bought this in July of 2026 after I researched the internet extensively. I drove from CT to Nashville, then Long Boat Key, FL and then to Charleston and back to CT. About 3000 miles. The hitch was used to carry my Segway E110a scooter that weighs about 220 lbs. It worked very well and I had no issues. It was very easy to mount it on the hitch by myself. I did get the straps with the ratcheting mechanism. The scooter did not move one iota with those straps. I highly recommend the MotoTote. And, when I called, I actually spoke with a human. Very refreshing.

Fast and easy assembly, perfect fitment
After looking at all the similar options, although maybe slightly cheaper, you get what you pay for. If you want a US based in Texas company to support a much higher quality product and easy to assemble product. This is for you. I reached out for a couple of questions. Great customer service fast shipment, and my bike fits perfectly.

Great quality
The built in anti-wobble is very effective. This is one of the only MX carriers that doesn't look like it was welded together in someone's garage.

Heavy duty and stable
I decided to upgrade from a different rack because I wanted something sturdier. The M3 definitely fits the bill. Build quality is great and assembly was nowhere near as difficult as I expected. Made the maiden voyage this past weekend with my 70 pound eMTB and looking forward to seeing how it will handle the 200 pound eMoto. One note, the MotoTote license plate mount did not fit this rack, so I opted for another one and strapped it directly to the main tube beneath the tray.

Great rack!
I am new to dirt bike hitch racks and they always seemed janky in the past, pleased with this one. 20+ hours of drive time and no issues.

Works great
Works great for my DRZ4S. I put it together and proceeded to go on a 1500 mile road trip. Nice and secure the entire time. Highly recommended

Money well spent! Easy loading and unloading.
Two of my buddies got these racks and they were raving about how great they were. I watched them unload their bikes in what seemed like seconds. Then load them the same way. I ordered mine on the way home from the rally point. Money well spent.
I’ve had mine now for about two years and it’s been flawless. I’ve hauled my KTM 509/690/890 all with this rack on the back of my Honda Ridgeline. And it’s been a pleasure to own.
