The etrailer Motorcycle Carrier, # e98873, must be used in a 2 inch hitch. And has a capacity of 500 lbs.
Since your tongue weight is 350 pounds, when using this carrier to transport your dirt bike you in a good range for your 350 lb maximum capacity. Your 245 lb dirt bike + 58 lb carrier = 303 lbs of tongue weight. That will be great and you still have plenty of room to account for the straps and things you will use to secure the bike.
