Front hitch/dirtbike carrier
Those that have a front hitch setup...which one? Also, looking for a dirtbike carrier for a somewhat heavier DRZ400SM (supermoto) bike, about 320 pounds wet. Anyone run something like that?

You'd get ticket in CA for not readable licence plate.
Not sure about obstruction of driver view.
You make an excellent point, Kayteg, and one that I addressed, too. With the photo below, you will see that the plate is visable to the front for a reasonable person to have the ability to see. Also, at night (though I prefer not to drive after dark) both headlights are visible through the wheels, as well as the turn signals. If I were to drive at night, I would fashion a light bar, in the theme of snow plows for this option, too. But it is unnecessary as it exists now.
I agree with you, that a Plate, rear or front when required, should be visible or moved and mounted so as to comply. There are numerous threads on this very subject and no resolution with those that wish to follow the rules/law and those that wish to follow the rule of I have done it for years and no one has ever bothered me so it is O.K.
But then again, your point of discussion is an entirely different thread that could be discussed in how front generators, ice coolers, fishing poles and the like obstruction of plates, turn signals and headlights.
If you were to begin a new thread I certainly would be happy to contribute to that thread too! It is a good point and one should certainly make adjustments if they are to carry a front mounted m/c where a front plate is required by the issuing state.
