If your camper is up to 8 feet long I recommend going with the Brophy tie downs you referenced #TDSF. These tie downs fit in the stake pockets of the truck bed with the hook end pointed out of the bed. I have included a link to the installation…

I have a solution for you that won't require the use of any type of hitch adapter, and that wouldn't be a great solution since using a hitch adapter would reduce the tongue weight capacity of your hitch by 50%; with a Class I hitch, that…

The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver #306-X7178 is a great hitch for your 2012 Toyota Prius and will be able to handle the 300 lb weight of your motorcycle and the motorcycle rack (if the 300 lbs you mentioned includes both), but I'm not…

The MaxxTow MaxxHaul Aluminum Motorcycle Carrier for 2" Hitches will weigh just under 50 pounds. I did some research on your Long Stride and found a few different models. As long the length of the bike is less than 79 inches, you are good to go.…
