A 2" receiver is the standard size for towing trailers, boats, etc. I believe the one you want is 1.25", IF you don't want a 2"...but why not get one that you can use for larger loads if you decide to go that route later?

I put a 2" receiver hitch on my wife's 09 RX350 and it works for just about anything we'd want to haul/tow. Our Yakima 4-bike rack is made for a 2" receiver. I bought the 2" Curt receiver hitch made specifically for her 09 RX and I think it cost $125 including shipping. It bolted right up in less than 20 minutes.

This is just one example:
