Recommended Front Mount Receiver for Carrying Small Motorcycle on 2019 Ram 2500
Question:
I have a 2019 Ram 2500 new style. I am looking for a Front mount hitch to carry a motorbike. What would you recommend? The bike weight is approx 350lbs

I recommend the Curt # C31089 front mounted receiver which is a confirmed fit for your 2019 Ram 2500. The hitch has a 500 lb vertical load capacity, which means that the bike plus the carrier you're planning on using can't have a combined weight greater than 500 lbs.
if you don't have a carrier, I'd recommend the Ultra-Fab # UF48-979033 which can accommodate bikes weighing up to 500 lbs with tires up to 5 inches in width. The rack also includes a loading ramp, which stows on the carrier when it's not needed.
If you need some ratchet straps to tie down the bike using the carrier's integrated tie down loops, I'd recommend the Erickson # EM31353. I'd go with two sets.
