Japenese Tow Bikes - Page 3

There was a show on one of the discovery type channels on this. It showed them in use in sweden one of the shots showed it pulling a Volvo wagon with a camper (caravan) behind it, now it was not a very big camper but it was a formidable size. It definately can pull very well but it was made for getting the highway opened back up and not for replacing a tow truck. Most of the time they only towed the vehicle to the next exit ramp where there was a tow truck waiting to take over. Obviously it was a forward only tow and would be very dificult to manuver in a parking situation?
