I'm looking to get a more serious dirt bike, probably a WR250F, which weighs around 250 pounds. I'm also seriously considering getting a 2021 Ford Bronco, which is what I would haul it with. I don't really want to own a trailer and have to figure out where to park the thing when I'm not using it.
So I'm hoping that I could use a hitch carrier and just stick the bike on the back. I don't really know how much one of those hitch carriers weighs, but the aluminum ones have to be less than 100 pounds. So what issues am I going to run into having about 350 pounds hanging off of the back like that. I'm assuming that a Jeep would be pretty similar to a Bronco when it comes to hanging a motorcycle off of the back. It would have to be far enough back there to clear the spare tire.
Anybody with knowledge or experience in this area?
I would appreciate any insights on the subject.
