I researched this subject at length a few months ago. My research indicated that some snow plows mounted to the front of a truck weigh over 1000 lbs. So, I opted to carry the bike on the front of the TV. I'm just in the process of fabricating the front hitch and the carrier. I bought the front hitch from E-trailer and welded two extra receivers on to that hitch. Next I bought a motorcycle carrier and modified it to fit the two receivers. This project is almost done, but I haven't actually hauled a bike yet. So, even though all my research indicated, to me, that the front was a better option, I can't talk personally about hauling a bike yet.
We are retiring this coming June and in September will head out on an extended trip. We will be carrying the bike then. I'll be making a couple of test runs prior to that.
All that said I won't be hauling the goldwing. The bike will be a smaller dual sport.
Good luck.
