It's cheaper now because it's discontinued. If that's all he needs, good deal.
As I pointed out, these are less than the Yak's retail price, but may cost more now because they also include drawbars. I suggested these two in case he wanted that additional feature.
You can see how I did four bikes. I already had the 2 bike hitch rack that I fabricated, which is why I put a factory receiver on my car (1 1/4"). The roof system doubles as a two kayak stacker, so it worked well for me. In the second photo you can see the wheel forks with the kayak caps in place. In case anyone else has boats and bikes.
