Expert Reply:

The Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 36540 is the receiver that I recommend for your 2014 Toyota Camry. This receiver is a class II with 1-1/4" opening. Draw-Tite recommends using their Drawbar # 36071 and you will need the 2" Hitch Ball # 19258 for your trailer.

You will need the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118405 to connect to the 4-way flat trailer connector on your trailer. This will allow the lights on your trailer to get their input from your Camry.

Since there is not a dual hitch adapter for a 1-1/4" receiver you may rather choose to haul your bike on the roof. The Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA118B-2 will connect to the roof of your Camry with the Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs # RRRLKVA and Fit Kit # DK321. You will then be able to use the Rhino-Rack Hybrid Roof Bike Rack # RRRBC050 to carry a bike up to 45lbs.
