Hi all. I'm a new (2 month) HS owner. Moved to the HS from an 06 GS. So far so good. Have a slight rattle in the mirror which I'll have them fix when I take it in for the 5K checkup.

I'm a cyclist and have been checking how to bring my bike along with an HS. It doesn't appear that there are any roof mounts yet for the HS. A trunk mount would be my "only if all else fails" option. I've seen that Curt has a specifically designed trailer hitch for the HS, which I could then put a standard bike rack on, but the picture they show on their website is so blurry it isn't useful to understand what the profile looks like on the back of the car. Not sure I want to permanently add a trailer hitch if it makes the car look god awful from behind.

Anyone have any suggestions? Anyone have pictures of a Curt hitch on an HS?

Thanks for your help.

Welcome to Club Lexus and congrats on the new car!

I'm a cyclist too, but basically gave up taking my bike to work when I got the HS. I can say I have successfully loaded a hybrid/fitness bike in the back seat (bringing it home from the LBS as a present for my wife), but I've decided not to do that everyday with a dirty bike. I have a trunk rack, but haven't used it on the HS yet - it did leave some marks on my previous car.
