Motorcycle lift
Looking at purchasing a new to us coach. It has the setup for a motorcycle lift on it. Does anyone recognize the type of lift that attaches to the setup in the photo

Could be for any of them as using the outboard receivers is one way of mounting a lift. Welcome back.

Can't say for sure but a Mighty Hauler uses three receivers.

looks like a CruiserLift. That's the receiver setup. The rest is a frame with electric winch to raise the platform after bike is secured on the platform.
The receiver on the RV is welded in place so previous owner left it rather than having to undo the install.

Gerry,
That hitch will work with a several lifts. If you have any thought of taking an motorcycle and a toad with you, the hitch and welding would cost you $800-$1500 to install. You should be able to pick up a used Cruiser Lift for around $1500. Hydraulic lifts are higher but also can be found. I have a Cruiser Lift and pull a tow dolly and car behind.

when i first bought my mh last yr i looked at the hydro lift for the hd and the blue ox tow system for the mini, what i found was the 2 units installed cost more then an 8.5 x 20 enclosed car haul trailer and provided less protection for both.
i got a 2018 trailer for 6k and 1k to have it delivered have the custom hitch made and have my roll a way tool box mounted inside.
pros:
better protection
more storage
less money
cons:
fuel mileage
added length

Based on my Hydralift mounting I would say it is NOT a Hydralift. Sorry I can't help with what lift may fit.

The HydraLift I sometimes use, uses the 2 extra receivers that I also use to tow my car... not the middle one.

Interesting. I've not seen that set up on a Hydralift. Mine is hard mounted to the coach frame. No use of any receiver(s).

That looks like a Overbilt hitch that I have on my motorhome.

I agree with PeteandDeb, it is a Cruiserlift tri-receiver. I recognize the brackets. The key difference between HydroLift and CruiserLift is CruiserLift uses an 12V electric winch /w a two pulley mechanism, and the HydroLift uses hydraulics.
Hope this helps,
