Hitch Mounted Motorcycle Carrier

Has anyone ever used a Hitch mounted motorcycle carrier on their XJ? I have a 99 Sport with a 2.5" Old Man Emu lift. It has a hidden Hitch 2" receiver. I am thinking about using it to carry a dirt bike. Between 200-300 pounds.

Any info would be great to hear.
 
I wouldn't be too concerned. I've towed a lot more weight than 300lbs, and that's all those carriers support. I'd say you're good to go.

just get a fat guy to stand on your back bumper and that will be the weight of your bike.
 
you have to remember, its going to be an extra foot or two past the bumper so it will act like more than 300lbs. It also depends on how soft your springs are and how much they have sagged over the years
