Default Good idea?????

I started thinking about those motorcycle haulers that use the receiver for a trailer hitch and then next thing I know I was coming up with this.
I wanted to get some feedback from everyone before I welded anything to my brush guard.
This is a Honda CRF50 approx 120-130lbs. I was going to weld hooks or ? to brush guard and mount bike there for desert trips. Obviously I will have to take it easy or I will break something. I just thought it was worth a try instead of blocking the back seat.
Check out pictures and forget the bike is on a stand. Picture it being connected to brush guard.

If the coil overs will take the extra weight, DO IT! Looks kinda cool on the front.

I think it will work, but that's alot of weight on the front end. Could make steering and camber abit strange. They make rear facing seat kits with receivers built into the step. Try it, if you don't like it..try something else. I think it's a great idea. Dave

If you hang weight on the front, it will lighten the rear., and vise versa? Your rear tires may slide easily when braking. (especially downhill!) You may need to add weight to the rear to even out the weight distribution...
I like the idea, it looks cool It'll work...
