What Bike Rack do You Recommend for a Motorhome and a Flat-Towed Vehicle?
Question:
Will this rack work on Motorhome and the towed vehicle ? If no what are my other options ?

While the Thule T2 Pro XTR # TH83JV is compatible with motorhomes, it is not compatible with flat-towed vehicle applications. This is because the bike rack receives even more force and torque when mounted on the rear of a flat-towed vehicle.
For a great rack that is compatible with both a motorhome and a flat-towed application, I strongly recommend the Hollywood Racks RV Rider - 2" # HLY64FR. The RV Rider can accommodate bike tries up to 5 inches wide and comes with an impressive 80-pound per bike weight capacity. Additionally, since the cradles independently adjust along the center mast, you do not need to worry about purchasing a bike frame adapter bar if you wish to transport women's bikes, step-thru bikes, or children's bikes. It also comes with a long 7-1/2" shank that is perfect for clearing rear bumpers.
If you need a hitch recommendation for your flat-towed vehicle, feel free to respond to confirm the year/make/model, and I will be happy to assist you further.
