See the Fit List, or ask a local dealer.Q: I need to carry several bikes. Can I place bikes on the car backwards to get more space A: Yes, just remember to turn the bike around before riding it.Q: What maintenance is required A: Maintenance is important to keep it working properly and to help it last longer. Apply grease to nuts, screws, and bolts. Lubricate locks with graphite. Remove the rack when not in use. Clean the rack periodically, especially in marine environments and where road salt is used.Q: How much space does it need How many can I carry A: That depends on the bikes and vehicle. First check the Fit List to see if there are any specific limitations for your vehicle (when using the online Rack Configurator bike mounts may not be offered or a load limit will be stated in the notes at the end of the process). In general, you will need about 12 inches of crossbar per bike when mounting them alternately front and rear facing. Barring any other restriction practical limit is usually 4 bikes.Q: Can I use a fairing with the Cobra or King Cobra A: Yes, but you will need to mount the bikes facing backwards.
