Honda Grom on front reciever?

We carry a Yamaha 125 Zuma with the 500 Lb. Versa Haul carrier works great with your 2002 F350 dually & 2005 9-6 Bigfoot using the frame mount Curt front hitch.

Its a lot of fun.

Have carried bikes up front for years on my Duramax, no problems at all. As far as I'm concerned it's the best way. Like mentioned it will block headlights so driving hours will be affected, other than that no problems.

Have you considered an Ebike / electric assisted bicycle? There are about 50-60lbs. The new technology is amazing

Specs page only list wheelbase, total length though should be about 65" may not interfere with the headlights too much.

Wish it had a retro price tag!!

2000 Superduty have front hitch attached to factory hooks, so it is on bumper level, meaning pretty high.
I bought Curt hitch for my 2017 F350 and that is mounted under front frame, what is pretty low.
Even my generator platform stick only about 20", it does scratches the driveways on occasions.
Some things worth to consider and add skid plate.

I think you're fine. We've carried a TW200 for thousands of miles - I seriously doubt you'll know a Grom is up there. A few things: get a really good carrier. The Harbor Freight ones are pretty flimsy and that's not a place you want something to fail (we've got a VersaHaul), plus the cheap ones can really flex. We have a Ram and they make a low and high hitch for the front. Make sure you're getting the lowest receiver they sell for your Ford. The bike may block your headlights, so it may limit your driving hours. I need to roll my brake lever up when traveling. If we take a good bump the flex was allowing the lever to hit the hood. We've had no trouble with blocking the air flow to the radiator - no noticeable change in engine temp, and we've done long miles in the summer heat of the South. That said, remember you'll be adding about 3' to the front of the truck. It gets to be a pain maneuvering, and you really have to watch your clearance going over dips.

My camper takes weigh off front axle so carrying generator on front helps in handling. Not to degree that I can tell the difference on 15k lb combo, but still.
For years I was carrying 1970 Honda trail on my motorhomes.
It was great for local sightseeing and small grocery shopping.
The thing was like 60lb heavy, so I could lift it on front mount, or later on, folding handlebars allow me to fit it inside bus luggage bay.
The Grom reminds me it a bit, but too big for what I want.
Btw the 45 years old Honda Trail still got me $1200 on resale and sold to first looker.

It's a mini bike with a maxi price. Too small for me.

As you are well aware, your diesel is already front heavy ... this takes its toll on ball joints, tires, other steering and suspension components. The good news is the Grom is only 229 lbs. wet and ready to roll ... plus the weight of the carrier. IMHO it's doable ... you may have to help your front suspension ... maybe upgrading/adding a leaf to either side or using Sumo Springs etc. to supplement your stock set-up.

If by chance your truck has the snow plow package, you're ready to go already. If you could "try it" without permanently committing i.e. borrow a carrier and Grom, hook them up and go for a nice long drive over all kinds of roads at all kinds of speeds, then perhaps that's the way to go?
