We have been researching 5ers for about a year now and after making a trip to two factories, had thought our minds were made up on an Excel 36RDO until we came across the Heartland line at an area dealership. We are very impressed with the value added features that the Bighorn offers and find the 3655RD to have the same floor plan as the Excel. A deal breaker for us is whether we can safely add an Overbilt motorcycle lift to the rear of a Bighorn and not have the warranty voided or upset the pin weight, etc. The Excel factory says that their frame can handle it. Has anyone done this with their Heartland 5er ? What is the factories position on this as far as the warranty is concerned and from an engineering standpoint, what impact to frame, pin weight, etc. The bike that we'll be bringing along is around 600#...V-Star 650. Thanks !! Linda
