Question:
Hellooo, I have a 2018 Camaro SS 1le and I plan on driving it 1,500 miles to NC and 1,500 miles back give or take. And I really wanna bring my bike, I have a 2023 husky 701 SM weighs about 340-350 lbs. would the 16-24 camper hitch be able to support a floating bike rack plus my husky? Or would I need to reinforce it? Thank you

Hi Zachary; the Draw-Tite Sportframe # 24938 has a max tongue weight of 200 lbs. Since your Husqvarna 701 Supermoto already exceeds that capacity you will not be able to use a carrier to transport the bike with this hitch.
There are no hitches available that can handle this and, even if they could, I doubt your Camaro is rated to hold that much tongue weight. You can attempt to somehow reinforce the frame and hitch but I can't recommend doing so and think it is a bad idea. Also, it isn't worth risking your bike falling off on the highway when the hitch rips off your car which would be a complete disaster.
The only good option would be to put your bike on a small trailer and tow it using the hitch. You also need to check your owner's manual to find the towing capacity of your vehicle. If you choose to go this route you will need wiring # C59236 and a ball mount like # 3594 with a 2" # 19258 or 1-7/8" # 19256 ball.
