Bike rack option

I have a 2860DS (31' C)
I purchased a hitch style bike rack and it should be fine.
However, when I tow my Motorcycle (single enclosed) is my only option for bikes a ladder mount?
I'm not a fan of the one I had on the old RV cause no matter how careful sometimes the inner bike contacted the motorhome and left marks
Help please on other options or a suggestion on a quality ladder rack that has good clearance
Thanks

It may do the trick, thanks

Swagman makes a couple bike racks that slip over the hitch insert piece and raises the bikes up.
