Helpful Expert Reply:
In order to use the Saris Freedom 2 Bike Platform Rack part # SA4412B on your 2006 Honda CR-V you will also need a trailer hitch receiver if you do not already have one. For this I recommend using the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 75690 which is a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver tube opening.
In order to secure the bike rack to the hitch I recommend using the Hitch Tite Anti-Rattle Hitch Lock for Saris Bike Racks part # SA3022 and in order to secure the bikes to the bike rack I recommend the Saris Cable Lock part # SA981.
I have also attached an installation video of the hitch and test course review of the bike rack for you.
