The Kuat NV 2.0 Base 4-Bike Platform Rack like part # BA22B-BA02B is only offered for 2" hitches. There are separate adapters that allow a 2" bike rack to be used in a 1-1/4" hitch but these cut the capacity of the trailer hitch in half which will not leave you with enough left for a bike rack and four bikes.
I know this is not your first choice but the best and really only option to use the Kuat NV 2.0 Base 4-Bike Platform Rack which is an excellent choice would be to switch to a 2"... view full answer...
I would be happy to go over everything needed to flat tow your 2018 Honda HR-V EX 4WD with the manual transmission.
Starting with the base plate kit I recommend the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # RM-521570-5 which is compatible with the Roadmaster Falcon All-Terrain # RM-522. The # RM-522 is one of our most popular tow bars due to the the non-binding arms that allow you to quickly and easily unhook your vehicle even on un-even terrain.
Next is tow bar wiring... view full answer...
For your 2024 Honda HR-V we only have Class I hitches like the Curt # C68DR since it's a lighter duty vehicle. The 2 inch hitches are for vehicles with higher capacities. So with the Curt hitch that fits your vehicle you'd need a bike rack designed for that hitch size like the Hollywood Racks Trail Rider # HR200Z. view full answer...
The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT57YR is our highest capacity receiver for your 2023 Honda HR-V. This receiver has a maximum tongue weight rating of 300lbs but be sure to verify you do not exceed any weight capacities given by Honda. I recommend pairing this with the Yakima RidgeBack Bike Rack # Y02458 to keep the weight down. This carrier weighs 35lbs and can support 4 bikes up to 40lbs each. You may need an Adapter Bar # Y02531 for any of your bikes with an alternative... view full answer...
Since the 2019 Honda HR-V is front wheel drive if you were to install a single set of tire chains you'd want to install them on the front axle. For optimum braking and handling though having them installed on all tires would be your best option.
When I pulled up the owners manual of your vehicle I did find that Honda only recommends tire cables like part # PW1038 for if you have the tire size 215/75-17. If instead you had a different size tire Honda states not to run chains or cables.... view full answer...
The Curt hitch part # C11416 fits both a 2019 and a 2022 Honda HR-V FWD so if that is what you have it would easily transfer to the new vehicle. It is recommended to get new install hardware since it's considered one-time-use. For that you'd need the part # RHK. view full answer...
You can indeed replace your existing single stage regulator with the MB Sturgis Horizontal 2-Stage Propane Regulator # 108221. I spoke with my contact at MB Sturgis regarding its performance in cold weather when compared to a single stage and he did say that what you read is true. This is because of the piston design that MB Sturgis uses for the 2-stage regulators that allows it to maintain the needed pressure as temperatures drop. This design is actually unique to their 2-stage units and... view full answer...
The strongest trailer hitch receiver that is available for your 2016 Honda HR-V is the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # 306-X7322, It has a 300-lb Tongue Weight (TW) capacity. Since your Honda Grom is 225 lbs, you could use the 58 lb etrailer Motorcycle Carrier # e98873 and be within the tongue weight limit of 300 lbs. My research shows that your 2016 Honda HR-V also has a vehicle tongue weight limit, but you will need to verify this with your owner's manual,... view full answer...
The Swagman Chinook 2 Bike Platform Rack # S64683 referenced in your question will work great on your 2016 Honda HR-V with a Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch installed. This particular carrier will fit both 1-1/4 inch and 2 inch trailer hitch receivers, so there will be no compatibility issues with the hitch receiver on your vehicle.
This is a great rack that will hold up to 2 bikes at 45 pounds each. It includes locks to secure the bikes to the rack and the rack to your vehicle. A great feature... view full answer...
You are obviously looking to get some use out of a roof rack system, so I first need to know if you have flush mount factory rails or not. If you do, I recommend the Thule WingBar Roof Rack that consists of # TH711220 for the two 47" WingBar Crossbars, # TH460R for the Rapid Podium Feet, and # THKIT4067 for the Custom Fit Kit. If you do not have the factory flush rails then your best option will be with the Thule WingBar system consisting of # TH711420 for the WingBar Crossbars, # TH710501... view full answer...
The Thule Aero roof rack you mentioned that consists of part numbers # TH711420, # TH710501, and # TH145175 has a weight capacity of 165 lbs. You would also need to verify the roof capacity of your 2016 Honda HR-V and be sure not to exceed the lower of the two figures as well.
If you want to see an install video that shows how a similar Aeroblade roof rack installs check out the video link I attached. How the clamps attach to the door of a vehicle is shown. It may be a different vehicle... view full answer...
For your 2016 Honda HR-V we have the Rhino Rack roof rack part numbers # RRVA118B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK454 which is a confirmed fit and would work well. I really like the Rhino Rack roof racks as they are higher quality than most but not quite as expensive as similar racks.
Then for a paddleboard carrier the Thule SUP Taxi part # TH810001 would fit and work well. You may have to position the board and carrier to either side of the antenna but this would still work great. view full answer...
I recommend going with a hitch bike rack like the Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack # NV12B. You will need the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C68DR for your 2024 Honda HR-V. This will allow you to carry the bikes behind Honda rather than trying to install the on your roof. The bike rack above also has a built in stand so you can more easily work on your bikes at home or at the trailhead.
I also recommend installing the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # TK72VR when you install the receiver. This will... view full answer...
We have a few lightweight bike rack options to help you transport your Townie Bike with your 2016 Honda HR-V.
The lightest bike rack we offer is the Kuat Beta Aluminum Folding 2 Bike Rack # B202-2 which will require the use of Kuat Bike Frame Adapter # UB01 due to the step-through frame design on your bike. The greatest part about the Kuat Beta is that it weighs in at just 12.6lbs and is still very strong with a maximum weight capacity of 80lbs. The only down side of the Kuat Beta is that... view full answer...
I recommend using the Konig Easy Fit Tire Chains on your 2024 Honda HR-V. These are my favorite chains because of how easy they are to install and since it is always cold and snowy/ice when you need to install them it only makes sense to get them on as quickly as possible and get back inside your warm car. You will need either the Chains # TH04115103 if you have the 215/60R17 tires or the Chains # TH04115104 if you have 225/55R18 tires. view full answer...
We have a few roof racks to fit your 2016 Honda HR-V with a naked roof. I recommend the Inno Aero Roof Rack consisting of the 42" Crossbars # INXB108-2, the Inno Feet # INXS200 and the Inno Fit Kit # INK878. I recommend this rack because it has an OEM look as the Aero bars do not extend past your roof for a clean, tight fit. Also, the elliptical shape helps to create an aerodynamic system with no need for a fairing.
This bar is 42" long and can support 165 lbs. However, be sure to consult... view full answer...
The best trunk mount bike rack for your 2019 Honda HR-V is hands-down the Yakima FullBack:
- 2-Bike # Y02634
- 3-Bike # Y02633
This rack not only looks great and is easy to use, but it's also one of the easier trunk racks on the market to install. It only uses 4 straps for the installation instead of 6 like what you see with a lot of other racks. I've personally used a handful of the trunk mount racks we carry and I can honestly say this would be the one I would buy if I were to purchase... view full answer...
All of our 2016 Honda HRX roof rack options would fit your LX model.
The INNO rack part numbers # INB127, # INSUT, and # INK878 would be a great rack for your naked roof.
If you happened to have raised rails you instead would want the part numbers # INXB130-2, # INXS450, and # INTR159. view full answer...
Since the hitches available for your 2016 Honda HR-V are lower in capacity like the Curt hitch # C18145 which has a tongue capacity of 200 lbs which would be too close to the weight of your scooter. Best option would be to tow a small trailer with your vehicle.
To do that you'd also need trailer wiring like the Tekonsha part # 118673 and a ball mount like # C45521. view full answer...
I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C68DR for your 2023 Honda HR-V, due to Curt's deserved reputation for quality.
If you need a wiring harness as well, the correct fit for your '23 HR-V is the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118673 which will give you a 4-way flat connector. view full answer...
