The hinge on my 2002 190V fell off last summer. Fortunately I was near a Roadtrek dealer. The only place he could get one was through Roadtrek (much of their parts are proprietary...windows, etc). They had to order from Canada, pay duty, etc. Cost me $300.00 out the door.

Has anyone had problems with law enforcement because their bike racks obstruct the rear license plate? Almost every hitch mount does. I want to avoid issues with small town police, etc as I travel the country and do not wish to call attention to myself. Would appreciate some insight before I spend a lot of money on a bike rack Thanks, Trapper Roadtrek 2002 190V San Diego, CA

I have been looking for a rack for my 2002 Roadtrek 190V. The Saris Thelma is a great rack. The common problem I am facing is that almost every rack obscures the license plate which, by CA law, is illegal. In many states just a reason to pull you over and cite you. Moving the plate is not really an option either as, by law, it must me illuminated, and at a specific height, etc. I am about to depart across country and do not wish to be a target of opportunity with CA plates. Any suggestions? Anyone had any issues with this? Thanks, Trapper 2002 RT 190V SEAHAG
