89 south to Flagstaff is an easy beautiful route. On the way be sure to take the scenic side trip thru Sunset crater scenic route. Very nice paved 2 lane hyway. Many amazing Indian ruins along it. I'd do this route and skip the traffic and madhouse of Sedona.
Yes 89 "to" Flagstaff is fine, there is no "89" from Flagstaff to Sedona. The OP is asking about 89A. Highway 89A runs from south of Flagstaff to/through Sedona. This road is very narrow and currently under several miles of serious construction. The pilot car will take you through 3 sections of mud, gravel and dirt road, expect to sit for 10 to 20 minutes at each stop. I rode this stretch on my Harley several weeks ago.
No vehicles 50' or more are permitted on this stretch of 89A. The OP's 37' motorhome towing a Honda will easily be over 50'. Most of 89A has little if any shoulder and very few pull outs. The road surface for the last 15 miles into Sedona is full of pot holes and in very poor repair. Expect heavy traffic just about any hour of the day. For the record there are few if any places to park the OP's rig in Sedona.
Far better to find an RV Park/CG and tour the area in your Toad. Dead Horse Ranch SP in Cottonwood would be a great place to stay, reservations are always a good idea there.
