  • Is Thule OutWay Platform-Style 2 Bike Carrier Recommended for 2011 Honda CR-Z
  • The platform style Raceway is not recommended for your 2011 Honda CR-Z nor on any vehicle that does not have a metal bumper. The rack is heavy for a trunk mounted rack and after adding the weight of bikes to the rack it can deform or dent plastic and fiberglass. For a 2 bike rack I recommend going with the OutWay 2, which you referenced. This rack holds 2 bikes, but is much lighter, at only 13 pounds. We have not had any complaints about this rack denting vehicles. This rack is also very...

  • Solution for Carrying Motorcycle With 2013 Honda CR-Z
  • That carrier requires a Class III or higher hitch with a 2" receiver, which is stated in the information on the product page. That is also what would be required to handle the weight of the carrier and motorcycle. Even if there was such a hitch for your vehicle, you will far exceed the vehicle tongue weight capacity with that 566 lbs. I don't think you want the carrier and the motorcycle to fall off in the middle of the road while driving. If you want to carry your motorcycle with your...

  • What Trimming is Required to Install a Trailer Hitch on a 2013 Honda CR-Z
  • According to the instructions for Curt trailer hitch # C11077 you will need to trim the underbody panels to remove the area where plastic clips attach the panel to the frame rails. I have linked the instructions and also included a picture from them showing the area to trim. If you plan on doing any towing with this hitch keep in mind that the gross trailer weight capacity is 1,000 pounds and the tongue weight capacity is 100 pounds. Consult the owners manual to determine what the tow...

  • How to Locate Rattling with the Curt Trailer Hitch # C11077 on a 2011 Honda CR-Z
  • It is difficult to determine what is causing a rattling noise without actually being able to see the vehicle, but I can give you some tips on where to look if you are comfortable crawling under your vehicle to look at the hitch. The alternative would be to take your vehicle to another local trailer hitch installer to have them inspect the installation. If you are anywhere near Wentzville, MO, we would be happy too take a look at it for you. If you are comfortable looking under your...

  • Trailer Hitch Availability for 2013 Honda CR-Z
  • My research on the 2013 Honda CR-Z shows that it was not designed to tow anything. You'd want to confirm this by checking with your Honda dealer or checking the owners manual. That being said we offer a hitch for your vehicle as there is a demand for it. We have the Curt part # C11077 which has a pretty low towing capacity of 1,000 lbs total trailer weight and 100 lbs tongue weight. Typically hitch towing capacities are higher than the vehicle capacities so I would not recommend towing...

  • Will Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11077 Fit The 2014 Honda CRZ "EX Model
  • Yes, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11077 is confirmed fit for 2014 Honda CR-Z.

The access holes may need to be enlarged by drilling, filing, or rotary tool. The exhaust must be temporarily lowered for installation. There is underbody trimming required (not fascia). The recommend ball mount for this setup is # C45520....

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2013 Honda CR-Z
  • Hitch mounted motorcycle carriers require 2 inch trailer hitches installed on the vehicle which aren't available for smaller vehicles like your 2013 Honda CR-Z. The Curt Hitch part # C11077 is a confirmed fit for your vehicle and would allow you to tow a small trailer for the motorcycle but it's not strong enough to support the weight of a motorcycle plus a carrier. You'd need trailer wiring part # C59496, ball mount # C45520, and hitch ball part # A-82 to do this as well.

  • Hitch Mount Bike Rack Recomendations for a Class I Trailer Hitch on a 2011 CRZ
  • You should have a Class I trailer hitch on your 2011 Honda CRZ because the only hitches available for your vehicle are Class I, 1-1/4 inches, however, stranger things have happened so by measuring the receiver opening you will be sure. Class I hitches have a 2 bike limit and up to a 200 lb tongue weight capacity for any hitch mounted accessory. The tongue weight capacity is the maximum amount of weight that can be carried on a hitch. This figure should be available either in your owners...
