First off, grab the siding bumper and pull it out, than lift up and down on it. You will find it moves a lot. Image the movement at 55 mph over the road. It will bounce up and down and maybe break as you travel.
They need some extra support and a way to stop any extra up/down movement you felt. Being on the rear of the RV anything there will bounce up and down.
Just watch for the guys with bikes etc on the bumper as you travel.
My opinion carry the genny in the truck bed. Use the pull out bumper for storage at camp. If the genny is used on the bumper you might feel it running throughout the trailer. Best to sit it chained up on the ground. My AF had a built in genny and it was like sitting on a vibrating bed when sitting at the table, it was a also to loud inside the unit.
