Transporting a SpeedMachine

Look at the Sportworks hitch mount rack. The bike's tires fit in a couple of hoops and spring loaded
hooked arms fit over the tires so nothing touches the frame. My V-REX and your SM have the same size
wheels, so the SW rack could be a good solution for you too.

Is there a car rack out there that can easily carry an SM? I currently use a THULE trunk rack, but
the frame tubes of the SM are too fat for proper seating. Any suggestions, and or recommendations?

Thanks in advance.

I have used a Pendle tow-bar mounting rack to transport mine in the past -

American tow hitches is different.

If you are happy with a trunk-mounted rack, a cheaper (department store) rack may work. These often
have simpler support arms without an integrated attachment mechanism. My $30 'Pep Boys'
trunk-mounted model works better for my BikeE and TE than the $130 Yakima trunk-mount model I tried.

On the other hand, the tray-mount receiver hitch or roof rack models from Yakima and Thule work
very well.
