AAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHA!
I tell ya, I wanna get one and tow my car down the highway. Of course, to get the proper effect you need to be either right in front of or right behind a camper pulling a car.

You guys don't live near a bridge or a tunnel do you? One car stops dead in the middle for a horrid reason. Everything stops, sometimes for hours. Why? Because there's no way to get a tow truck in there. This would be nice.

Waste of a good bike. Like Bruce said..... brakes!!! The extra wieght would toss that bike around like a doll if the car hits uneven pavement or something, over-stress that poor GL's driveline way beyond design.... the reasons to not do this are many. And I'd like to see it even move my 10,500lb+ truck.
Tunnels have 2 openings, send the tow truck in the
other end....

just what i wanna do is tow my car around town with my bike..
For the time it looks like to build that thing, you could have just called a tow truck (if broken down that is)..
