For your 2011 Toyota Sienna, I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 75237. Using this trailer hitch receiver, you can use the etrailer Motorcycle Carrier w/ Ramp for 2" Hitch - 76" Long - Steel - 500 lbs # e98873 which weighs 58 lbs.
When you use this carrier, it would be wise to use a suspension enhancement to keep the back end from sagging. I recommend the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TTORSEN04 for your application for a maintenance free option or the Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs - Rear Axle # F4155 for an air spring option. If you want to add the optional adjustment compressor, I recommend the Firestone Air Command I - Analog Gauge w/ Standard-Duty Compressor # F2158
