QUESTION: Are the receivers on the back of the motorcycle carriers strong enough to handle one hundred pounds of tongue weight from a bicycle carrier and bicycles?

ANSWER: Yes, you just do not want to exceed the total carrying capacity of the carrier. If the carrier is rated at 500lbs and your bike is 300 lbs then you will have 200 lbs of tongue weight remaining behind the carrier.  However your vehicle’s hitch and suspension may limit your to a lesser amount.
