    I was looking for one a while back and EBay is the only place I have ever seen them.

    You could fab something up pretty easy and cheap with a piece of steel plate, a grinder and a drill press.

    seems to work just fine. I haven't had a trailer on it but you can stand on it with no problems. I'm just getting this bike put together, new post with pictures pending after I install a new throttle cable.

    here's some poor pics of mine almost forgot about taking them and it was dusk when I did. as you can see it attaches at the top and has a support bracket on the bottom, I talked to the original owner and he purchased the hitch from the yamaha dealership here.
