The best option for a 5-bike rack that is rated for use on a motorhome is the Apex XT from Thule, which is the following part number:
- Thule Apex XT Bike Rack for 5 Bikes # TH9026XT
The Apex XT # TH9026XT is the easiest 5-bike rack to use because it doesn't require any tools to install; you just pop it in your hitch, twist the knob on the shank and you're done. It also has simple ratcheting straps to secure your bikes, and its cradles are soft which absorb vibration to keep your bikes still. That's really important due to the increased amount of movement at the back of a motorhome compared to a standard passenger car.
It also comes with locks to secure the rack and your bikes. so the only other thing to keep in mind is that with a hanging rack, if one of the bikes you want to carry has a step-through frame, or you want to carry a children's bike, you'll need to give those bikes a horizontal mounting point with a bike adapter bar, part # HRBA-PRO.
