How to Load Two Bikes on a Swagman Original 4 Bike Rack # S64400 Mounted on the Back of a Motorhome
Question:
We have two bikes that will mount on the above mentioned rack. I know that the heaviest bike should be mounted close to the back of my RV, do I mount the second bike next to the first bike or do I mount the second bike on the very end of the rack?

You will mount your second bike on your Swagman Original # S64400 next to the first bike which is closest to your RV. You want to keep the weight of the bikes as close to the source of support as possible.
By loading your second bike at the end of the bike rack it will incur unneeded jarring from basic road wear and can put undue pressure on the hitch and/or bike rack itself.
