Recommendation for Motorcycle Carrier at Back of 22 Foot Motorhome

Published 08/23/2023

Question:

Looking for a motorcycle carrier for the back of a 22 foot RV with a 500 pound tongue weight. Will be carrying a 2014 Yamaha 250 V Star motorcycle which weighs 326 pounds and a wheel base of 58.7 inches. Please advise all options.

The only motorcycle carrier rated for use at the back of a motorhome is the Ultra-Fab Dirt Bike Carrier for 2" Hitches # UF48-979033 so that's what I recommend using. This is rated for up to 500 lbs and is 77" long so it will be able to handle your Yamaha pretty easily.

One thing to keep in mind is that if by "RV" you mean trailer, then there isn't a solution for that. The movement at the back of a towable trailer is too much and your trailer hitch receiver won't be able to handle it or this carrier won't be able to properly support the weight of the bike.
