Hello Fred,
The Trike Adapter for Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Racks for Electric Bikes # HLY37RR isn't rated for RVs because it extends the weight of the # HLY84FR rack it mounts to rearward, which puts too much leverage on the shank of the rack. There's far more bounce on RVs due to their suspension so the rack could potentially be damaged.
