ABSTRACT:
An adapter kit for transporting a motorcycle on the cross tube assembly of the wheel lift of a tow vehicle includes a plurality of rigid bars which form a pair of spaced cradles in cooperation with the cross tube assembly for receiving the wheels of the motorcycle therein. Two of the bars are mounted in the existing mounting members of the cross tube assembly. Certain of the other rigid bars are adjustably connected to each other and are adjustably mounted on the other cross tube mounted bars and form the cradles. Flexible straps extend between extended ends of certain of the rigid bars and the motorcycle structure for securing the motorcycle on the cradles in a conventional manner. The bars are readily removable from each other and from the cross tube assembly of the vehicle for storage when not mounted on the wheel lift for transporting a motorcycle.
