    Detachable tow bar

    Anyone had any dealings with these, how good are they, hard to fit, and would be suitable for 854R?

    ive got one on my 854R, it came fitted with it, you dont really notice it when its off any way, dont know what the max towing weight is on it, but imo its better than a fixed one

    Thanks for that Dan, does look at little out of place on such a speed demon, when your not towing a double axle caravan up the M1 at 120mph!

    Got one fitted on the back of mine, so I stop reversing into things, plus a little protection if some runs into the back of you.
