Actual customer comments:

  • "Ingenious Idea"
  • "ABSOLUTELY THE BEST DEAL"
  • "Quick Shipping, great towing bar, easy to install

The Slick Wheelie attaches in seconds to a 2" Class II or Class III receiver, and its all steel construction allows for this unit to haul bikes with a curb weight of up to 1000 lbs. Other transports require you to struggle with pushing your bike up a ramp. Not this baby!

It's as easy as...

1. Simply turn the crank and the cradle lowers to ground level

2. Insert and secure the front wheel. Then,

3. Turn the crank in the opposite direction to raise the bike to the transport position.

Really. It's just that simple.

FAQs

Do you have questions about this product? If so, take a look at some of The Slick Wheelie's FAQs.

Do I need lights on my motorcycle when towing with the Slick Wheelie?

Research indicates that because the Slick Wheelie is not a traditional trailer and the towing automobile's lights are not obstructed, additional lights are not needed. For safety, however, we offer two suggestions:

1.When driving at night, illuminate the motorcycle's running lights or purchase an inexpensive trailer lighting kit. These kits easily plug into your trailer lighting receptacle.

2.Check with your local law enforcement agency for regulations specific to your location (Laws sometimes change without the knowledge of some citizens.)

Will this type of towing affect my odometer reading?

Most odometers function in conjunction with the front tire. The front tire is elevated while in tow, so the odometer does not register any additional mileage. That being said, there are exceptions to any rule. Please refer to your owner's manual or contact the manufacturer with regards to your bike.

What kind of bike can be used with the Slick Wheelie?

Most 2 wheeled motorcycles can easily be towed with the Slick Wheelie. Trikes and side cars do not allow for the lean necessary for turning. There are 3 minimum requirements:

1.The front tire must allow for a strap to wrap around the rim, so there needs to be an opening.

2.The stabilizer straps must be able to attach to the handlebars or upper triple-tree - not the forks.

3.Custom raked front ends cannot extend more than 3 or 4 inches over the original stock lengths.

Can it be used with a motorcycle that has fairings or wind effects?

More often than not, a point of anchor can be found. Remember that the straps need either attach to the upper triple-tree or handle bars. Do NOT attach the straps to the forks. You cannot place straps over OR wrap around fairings, windshields, or anything that may interfere with the attaching of the motorcycle to the bumper. The straps that connect the motorcycle to the tow vehicle must be taut. As fairings and windshields can bend or break, attaching to either one may cause the straps to slip and become loose.

What size front tire will it accept?

Slick Wheelie will accommodate a front tire up to 5 1/2 inches in width - 6 inches, if you reduce the psi.

What is the weight capacity for the Slick Wheelie?

1000 pounds

Is there a particular bumper height that works best with The Original Slick Wheelie?

The bumper of the tow vehicle must measure 12'' - 16'' in height from the ground to the center of the receiver opening. If it does not, a drop receiver extension can be used.

Do you make a version of the Slick Wheelie that will fit a 1 1/4" receiver?

Slick Wheelie may not be used with a Class I receiver which has a 1.25'' square opening. If you have a Class I adapter, DO NOT use it with The Original Slick Wheelie. A Class I adapter is a device used to convert a Class I receiver to a Class II receiver. This adapter is not stable enough to work in conjunction with The Original Slick Wheelie. Although some internet sites may suggest the use of the two products together, DO NOT.

Using the Slick Wheelie, can I transport my shaft-driven motorcycle?

We have not received any reports from our consumers regarding any problems associated with the use of Slick Wheelie and shaft-driven motorcycles. However, know that some shaft-driven motorcycles use a lubrication pump that requires that the motor be running in order for it to work properly. Should you have any doubt or concern about your specific model, please contact your motorcycle manufacturer, authorized mechanic or dealer.

Will my motorcycle be damaged if I don't remove the drive chain before towing?

As with any engine concern, if you have any doubts, we recommend that you contact the service department of your bike specific dealership.

Can I purchase more than one Slick Wheelie?

Absolutely! Buy two or three. The Original Slick Wheelie makes an AWESOME gift!

  • Slick wheelie customization 4

    Posted by Wayne on Apr 28th 2022

    Once I got it "customized", it works great. I found that I had no place to attach the tie downs, so I h ad to get creative. Otherwise, it seems to tow fine. Wish it was easier to crank up though...

  • More info needed on website 4

    Posted by Aaron Shafer on Mar 29th 2022

    Unfortunately I was not able to utilize the hauler due to the requirement of the attachment points for the tie down straps needing to be 24” from the center of the receiver. My vehicle’s hitch is not wide enough for that and it is not a traditional bumper. If that stipulation was included on the website, I did not see it. I only found out that info after reading the instructions.

    Fed ex messed up on my order they rerouted it with no explanation, when I reached out to the trailer store they got ahold of fed ex and responded to me within a day fast forward to the package being delivered.... it showed up with a large hole in the box and it was missing a ratchet strap and the crank handle I contacted the trailer store about this and they sent out replacement parts right away I have no complaints about how they handled everything, fed ex on the other hand well..... anyway the product is about what you would expect at this pricepoint its not the most refined product but it works! I recommend greasing the threaded rod it will operate so much better! I used synthetic garage door lube and it worked great

  • Worked like a champ. 5

    Just completed round trip from Ohio to Arizona, over 4,000 miles, with no issues.

  • It’s a good product 4

    Posted by Unknown on Sep 7th 2021

    It works great. Two problems I see. The brass piece the threaded bolt goes through kinda makes me nervous for later down the road, but if you lube it before you use it it does fine. The other problem I had was the small crank handle. I have a busted right hand and it was very difficult, but I had a handle made that was twice as long and half as easy to turn. Cost under 20 usd. I love the hauler. It is much easier overall to use than a trailer. (And I’m one handed.)

  • The way to tow 5

    Needed something to get the motorcycle four and a half miles of Sandy Road to somewhere where I can download it and ride

  • Works great 5

    Worked great. Lifted and towed the motorcycle without a problem.

  • Works!... 5

    Posted by Sniperman on Sep 3rd 2020

    I bought this but was a bit skeptical. I tried it around my neighborhood and then read the directions again. I had not strapped it correctly. READ THE DIRECTIONS! ;) Once locked in it performed flawlessly! Very stable. I checked every 15 miles or so my first trip just to make sure. It never moved. Very good device and works as advertised. READ THE DIRECTIONS!...on that note, my only complaint is that the lifting part had to be heavily lubricated as it became very difficult to turn...could use a better lifting attachment. Overall...worth the money...

  • So far so good. 4

    So I just got my road king loaded on it today, I'm headed to Cave Creek Arizona for a job. Hopefully it works out well! The Box came beat to hell, With a giant sticker that said made in China. It was missing one of the nuts I needed to assemble it, but I had 1 in my garage.
