Hey was wondering if the an M35 stagea would tow a ve commodore once ona 3 hour trip with a braked trailer of course, my tow bar is rated at 1200kg braked and looks solid, If not then no biggy we can just tow there bikes back instead but just wanting some insight from. People have towed

 

Ps, yes there will be hills to go up and down

Commodore weighs about 1700kg, the trailer will be at least 600kg - 2300kg is almost twice the rated capacity of the tow bar and heavier than the Stagea. We tow a 600kg kart trailer occassionally and the ARX doesn't like it much. 

I would say no. I used to work with a guy who owned a M35 as he once mentioned that there was something weak about the mounting position of the towbar. He used to tow a box trailer around and it didn't like it one bit.

Do it. It's only double the rating.

Wouldn't think so, I'll be towing there dirt bikes back and that's about it, but another question, how do you like the arx? I'm looking at selling and upgrading
