You might get buy with hinging you plate to the drivers side. Still readable from a passing car.....
I have had ideas like that but wonder if that part of the frame will be strong enough. I thought of running a bar to the front, under the tank like the old ones. The difference would be that I would have that entire piece under the tank removable like the current receiver hitches. I have built hitches for motorcycles that all was hidden under the fender. Done properly, the draw bar can be inserted up, into the receiver and still do easy towing. Just a bit harder to use but well hidden.
I thought a bar like you said plus one at the front of the tank. Both would have a receiver so a single piece of square tubing with two draw bar type pin setups would be inserted into both receivers and run out the back with a ball mounted.
I need one at times but for nothing heavy.

I'd have to see a drawing of that to understand fully Pete but sounds like another solid option. We'll have to get the mods to add a 'Trailer' section when one of use finally gets started on these to toss around hitch ideas, trailer options, etc.
The hitch would really come in handy for toting track tires, mountain bike, parts trailer like my tilt one, etc. I just want to be able to hide the receiver when I'm not using it.

i've got a flat bar reciever here that i use on the rods instead of a square tubing version that would be much simpler to hide & use. it can be placed under the valence & not seen vs. having to come up with something to hide behind the plate.

I remember you mentioning that type Steve, you'll have to show me when I get by this week. Any evening that's better to stop by this week? I need to bring my headers by to get the flanges tacked on if you have the time.
