I am hoping to purchase a '10 Frontier and have several questions. I would like to carry my wife's motorcycle in the back. The dealer told me that the tie-down hooks have a 250 lb each restriction on them. The bike weighs a little over 500 lbs. Any thoughts. Also, what would the weight restriction on the tail gate be as the rear wheel would be riding on the tail gate.

Another idea is that you can get a 6x6 piece of lumber and make some "stands" for the bike's frame, and set that under the bike, but on the bed...so that you're not putting a load on the tailgate.
