    Greetings,
    I have a 2001 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 regular Cab with 2.7 L engine, 5 speed manual. I'd like to mount a motorcycle carrier on the back and would appreciate some help in choosing the proper/safe mounting system. The bike I will be hauling is a ROKON Scout 2x2 off road bike that weighs about 250lbs. The bike came with an SMC-600 Sport Motorcycle Carrier that is pretty heavy, maybe 100 lbs. Total weight would be around 350-400 max. Any opinions or other options appreciated.
    Thanks
