I have a solution for you, but unfortunately the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 2-Bike Platform Rack # SH22G will not work for your application. This is for a couple reasons, one being that the Kuat Sherpa is not motorhome compatible and is not strong enough to take on the extra stress/bouncing that comes from a motorhome. The other reason is that the weight capacity of the Kuat Sherpa is only 40lbs per bike and will not work for your 130lb total bike weight.

The only bike that will work well for your application is the Lets Go Aero V-Lectric FAT PRO Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount # LGA77FR, which is an excellent bike rack that is very versatile. This secures the bikes by the wheels and works with tires up to 4.5" wide. The weight capacity is impressive at 75lbs per bike, which will be plenty for your bikes assuming they are about 65lbs each. The Lets Go Aero Bike Rack can be used with many applications including motorhomes, 5th wheel trailers, travel trailers, and more; so this will work great on your 2013 Winnebago View.
