Question:

Would it be safe to transport a 2012 honda xr650l on a 2008 jeep grand cherokee with a 2 inch reciever using the mx600? The bikes dry weight is right at 350 pounds. Thank you for any feed back.

As long as the tongue weight capacity of your hitch can handle the weight of the bike plus the 45 lb weight of the carrier, and the width of your tires do not exceed the 5 inch track width of the carrier, the ULtra-Fab # UF48-979033 should work great for you.

All of the Class III aftermarket hitches we offer for your Grand Cherokee have a 500 lb tongue weight (TW) capacity. You should confirm the TW of your hitch by checking the sticker placed on it, and make sure the weight of the carrier plus the bike does not exceed it.

I have linked you to a product demonstration video featuring the motorcycle carrier.
