Personally I think having only 10 percent hitch weight is going to give you very squirrelly handling and serious problems with sway. Most hitch weights are over 2 and 1/2 times what you're proposing.
It's kind of too bad that my trailer is designed with a light pin of 17% to begin with. If it had been designed with a pin weight of 25% then adding the lift and bike would have reduced it to 18% and all would have been great. As it is I might have to either add a third axle or move my existing axles back a bit.
