Expert Answers about Honda CR-V
- How to Transport a Trailer with a 2015 Honda CR-V
- I do have a way that you could possibly transport your motorcycle with your 2015 Honda CR-V but unfortunately all of the motorcycle carriers are fits for 2" receivers so you will need to use a trailer to move your motorcycle around. It is worth noting as well that the online version of your owner's manual states that the vehicle is only rated to tow 1,500 lbs and that the tongue weight should never exceed 10% of that (which means you have 150 lbs of tongue weight). Even if your 1-1/4" receiver...

- For a magnetic set of LED tow bar lighting the Hopkins part # C6304 is a great option. But you should note that this is a wireless kit that requires batteries (lithiums to be specific). These have a stronger magnet and are LED.

- You would need to use a small extension to allow the Blue Ox Avail part # BX7420 to fold up when not in use. For that the part # BX88265 would be perfect. It can provide up 6-3/4" or 8-3/4" of extension and would work well as it is intended for use with tow bars.

- If you have a 5-way round connector on your trailer that you tow with your motorcycle that you need to replace the part # PK11501 would work.
I attached a review video for this connector for you to check out as well.

- The Rhino-Rack Masterkey Lock Barrels # RRRK005-2 are available in different key codes. These show they use the key 005 so you are able to match additional accessories when you but additional components. You can get different codes such a 093 # RRRK093-2, 106 # RRRK106-2, and 062 # RRRK062-2 to name just a few. So while there is a chance someone could have the same keys, but there are several possibilities.

- The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed to fit this vehicle is the Thule Camber 2 part # TH9058. We asked our demo and install guys to name their favorite, most easy-to-use bike racks and this one showed up in nearly everyone's top three. Check out the review video I attached for more info.
If you plan on carrying any women's or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide...

- It is a 7-Way Flat Pin Blade to 5-Flat/4-Flat. To be used with something such as the # HM47025 used for the 7 way RV blade trailer socket on the vehicle and adapts it to work with a 4 or 5-wire flat connector on the trailer.

- I attached an install video that shows the SMI Air Force One part # SM99243 installed in a 2014 Honda CRV that is similar to your 2012 model.
For lighting the easiest solution will be to use a custom fit kit like the Hopkins part # HM56304 which plugs right into the taillight harnesses of your CRV. I attached an install video that shows this installed on a similar 2014 CRV just like yours.

- The towing capacity of your 2017 Honda CR-V would include the elevation changes you would have in your area. If the capacity was different for mountainous areas Honda would have just lowered the capacity accross the board to be safe there.
I'd recommend a brake controller to help your trailer and tow vehicle stop in the steep hills you'll encounter. You will need to start with a 4-way (if you do not have one). For that you would want the # 118741.
From there you would need to convert...
view full answer... - Base Plates and Equipment Needed to Flat Tow 2014 Honda CR-V
- According to Roadmaster, their # RM-521567-5 direct-connect base plates are compatible with your Falcon 5250 tow bar. Compared to the # RM-521567-4 which requires a crossbar, the # RM-521567-5 makes for a cleaner install that's easier to use.
To complete your flat towing system, you'll need safety cables like # RM-643 if you don't already have them, a taillight wiring harness like part # RM-15247 and a supplemental braking system like the Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR and possibly a high/low...

- We do offer ratcheting tie down kits such as the Bulldog # BDW20230 but these do not bolt-down; they have hooks on each end of the four included no-stretch, high-strength polyester straps. The straps have built-in adjustable loops for wrapping axles. We also offer them individually as part # BDW20229. These are usually used with tie-down anchors like # RR5K.
Your dolly may allow use of these axle straps to avoid the concern about tire damage. It would be a good idea to check with the...

- I ran out the our warehouse, and pulled one of the Fulton Snap-Ring Swivel Marine Jacks, part # FTJ12000101 off the shelf. The caster does indeed swivel. The caster is welded to the interior pipe portion of the jack, which is free to swivel.

- There is no plug-in adapter available to mate a 6-pole square RV connector directly to a 4-pole flat connector, but we do offer a 6-Pole Square Trailer Wiring Connector Kit, part # 37995, that can work for you as long as you do not have a Jayco RV (which can have compatibility issues with this part).
Hopkins Connector Kit # 37995 includes both male and female connectors. You can cut off the 4-pole flat connector from the MaxxTow Magnetic Light Kit and splice in the male 6-pole connector...

- We offer a range of hi-rise hitch balls but none has a 3/4-inch diameter shank; all are 1-inch or 1-1/4-inch diameter. You can instead use a ball mount with the equivalent rise to accomplish the height adjustment you need.
If you have a 2-inch hitch receiver you can use Draw-Tite Ball Mount # 2753, which provides either a 2-3/4-inch rise or 4-inch drop. This ball mount uses a hitch ball with a 1-inch shank, such as Tow Ready # 19247. If you need a hitch pin and clip you can use Hidden...

- Yes, we can help you select a black aero-style roof rack for your black 2018 Honda CR-V that has the factory flush-mounted roof rails.
The available rack systems from Rhino-Rack, Thule and Yakima appear on the linked page and these include the Rhino-Rack Vortex system # RRRVP46 that you referenced. For a clean appearance and value for the dollar I really like this Rhino-Rack setup, but if you need longer bars for more cargo space there are additional options.
For a black rack with longer...

- 25 mm is very close to 1 inch, so there is a good chance the castle nut part # 165686 would fit as it is 1 inch. That said we've had customers tell us it's actually 22 mm which we don't carry.

- As far a visibility from the rear goes, all the hitches we offer for your 2013 CRV are pretty visible, you can see a side-by-side comparison video by clicking the provided link.
The good news is that the Curt and Draw-Tite Class II and III models have round-tube crossbars which most folks think looks better than the square tubes.
Even though there's a Class III hitch available that has a 3500 towing capacity, the towing capacity of the vehicle would take precedence, limiting your to...
view full answer... - Trailer Tongue Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for Trailer with Limited Clearance
- Since you only have 2.5 inches of available space on the frame of your a-frame trailer the Swagman part # S80503 won't work BUT I have a great solution instead. Check out the Jack-It 2 Bike Rack for A-Frame Trailers # LC429756. This attaches between the trailer jack and the trailer instead so your limited frame clearance would not be an issue.
