Nothing with a motorcycle. Probably 60,000 + miles over the course of 18 years when towing tandem with a 5500 pound boat with over 500 pounds of tongue weight. And multiple friends who do the same. Which seems to be to be pretty similar to what the OP is considering (which is what I said in my first post).

Tell me, what experience do you have on the subject, other than reading things 3rd or 4th hand on the internet?
Another friend lost two bicycles because they bounced off.
