hitch dr. hitch

I have a Hitch Dr. hitch on my Valk. It is a woof to install by one self just because it takes more than two hands. The bolts that hold the hitch on go through the saddle bag brackets then through spacers then through the hitch then more spacers then through the frame of the bike then finally thread into nuts in the fenders. As soon as you remove all four bolts the fender is going drop down a little and will no longer be aligned with the holes in the frame. I have taken mine on and off several times and always do it by myself but you will be talking to it before you are done. I have a fixture that holds my bike in the upright riding position and I put a floor jack under the back of the fender for it to rest on when I take all the bolts out. Then I feed the two sides of the hitch in between the frame and saddle bag brackets.(it will help to loosen the bolts on the lower end of the saddle bags too). when you get the hitch in place it will be resting on the floor jack under the fender. Good Luck, David
