You have made a really nice choice for a bike rack with the Yakima RidgeBack 4-Bike Rack # Y02458, and I can tell you that it will absolutely work with the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75270 for your 2014 Honda Odyssey.

When we installed this hitch on a '14 Odyssey we found it was 6-1/2 inches from the hitch pin hole to the bumper, and the distance from the hitch pin hole to the closest part of the RidgeBack is 9-1/2" so you will have plenty of room to spare. This rack is really easy to use and installs with the turn of its SpeedKnob, which is one of the reasons I think it's such a good choice.

I have added a link below to a video review for you to check out as well if you'd like of the Yakima RidgeBack 4-Bike Rack # Y02458.

Additionally, I do want to add that if you plan on carrying kids' bikes or bikes with a step-through or alternative frame you will need to give the bikes a horizontal mounting point by using the Bike Frame Adapter Bar # 64005.
