It sounds like you are interested in transporting your 130-lb Amigo mobility chair on the back of both a 5th wheel trailer and your Harley trike. A 60-lb carrier that can hold the chair will typically require a suitably-rated 2-inch hitch, one that has the necessary tongue weight (TW, or downward force) capacity for the combined weight of the chair and the carrier.
We do not offer any hitch for the Tri-Glide but we do have hitches made for installation on trailer frames, such as on your 5th wheel. All frame-mounted 2-inch RV hitches are shown on the page I linked for you. These are made with varying TW ratings from 350-lbs up to 600-lbs, as with Curt hitches # C13701 and # C13702. These fit RVs with frame rail spacing from 18- to 51-inches and they can be bolted on or welded on.
