Expert Reply:
The only Saris bike rack that has been confirmed as a fit for your 2012 Honda Pilot is the Solo # SA102.
For a similar bike rack to the # SA805BL that you referenced that has been confirmed as a fit for your vehicle you would want the Yakima Hangout # Y02637.
If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Swagman Easy-Out Women's and Alternative Frame Bike Adapter # 64005 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
