Question:
The HLY64FR bike rack is rated for use on back of a motor home or 5th wheel. Is there a rack that is similarly rated but also has a ramp that can be used for these heavier E bikes? So far the only one that has a ramp is not rated for motor home or 5th wheel use. I think that was a Hollywood destination. Its needs to be for 2 step thru type e bikes. That will weigh up to 70 pounds.

There is an option other than the Hollywood Racks RV Rider Bike Rack item # HLY64FR that has an optional ramp but it tops out at 67 lbs per bike. If you take the batteries out of your Step Thru bikes this will get you to that capacity. It is the Kuat Piston Pro X Bike Rack for 2 Bikes item # KU98VR.
The Kuat Piston Pro X item # KU98VR can be used behind any vehicle, motorhome, or trailer with a 2" receiver. It weighs 60 lbs. It is a wheel mount bike rack that clamps onto your wheels around the 10 o'clock and 2 o'clock positions. If you have fenders this wouldn't be a suitable option. I have linked a review video below so you can see the functions of this bike rack.
The ramp is sold separately and it is the Loading Ramp for Kuat Piston Pro X Bike Rack item # KU63VR.
