Could Curt and Malone Dual Hitch Adapter be Used with Dirt Bike Carrier

Question:

MPG544 D-192 these are the two products I was looking at. I dont need the extra extension, but it sounds like it has I high weight rating for carrying the weight of my two dirt bikes.

The Curt dual hitch adapter part # D-192 has a tongue weight capacity of 350 lbs and the Malone part # MPG544 has a tongue weight rating of 400 lbs. Your two dirt bikes plus the weight of your motorcycle would need to be under those numbers for them to work. Also keep in mind that when you use a hitch adapter like this you cut the capacity of the hitch by 50 percent. So for example to get the full capacity from the Malone of 400 lbs the hitch's capacity would need to be 800 lbs or more.

We don't have any dual motorcycle carriers at this time but we do have the # e98873 which weighs 67 lbs.
