Tow Dolly Modifications

I am looking at purchasing a tow dolly and have it modified to carry my motorcycle. I am looking for comments from any that might have done this, not safety lectures,etc. I have seen several on the road(some modified and some factory built), wish I could afford one of the factory units, but am not well off with money to burn..LOL..I found a dolly to buy and am planning of taking it to a certified welding shop to have the work done, not a job for a back yard welder like me..Again, just looking for comments from those that have done this or positive suggestions..

    I'd get as much information as possible on the ones that are factory made, to try and figure out the best location for the added motorcycle rack.
    You want to try and keep as much weight as possible off the hitch, so you may have to move the car rack back a bit, to counter-balance it.
    I really don't know exactly what needs to be done, which is why I suggest getting some drawings/photos of the ones that are out there.

    Good luck on the project, and post pictures when it's done!:)
