• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Show me your trailer if you transport your Can Am

Bought Synthia, my 2014 RT in Texas on a whim (got a great deal) . Being new to the SpYder world at that time, I did not think it prudent to ryde it back to Georgia. So picked this up while in Texas - 77" x 10', 3500# axles, 15 inch wheels. Tows great. Have only used it a couple times for the SpYder, but MANY times for other stuff. Very handy to have.

Behind the motorhome: ALUMA trailer

U0X7sVj.jpg
 
I have an Ultimate Trailer as well, but the experience has been anything but ultimate. Yes, it does load and tow very nice, I have had several problems. A broken suspension weld and wiring short while on my way from New Hampshire to the 3 Wheel Rally in Deadwood, South Dakota. Another wiring short on another trip and a check valve failure in the air compressor that resulted in the trailer suspension not staying inflated. The company reimbursed my out of pocket expenses for the repairs, but I have considerable anxiety every time I use it now.6E6A1253-DE29-4DE1-9D0E-ED6C5CFBFA62.jpg441B41E8-950A-4F95-866E-83714C47DFB5.jpg00AEB147-EC1E-438F-BCCB-D77CB0351874.jpg
 
I actually tried to rent a UHAUL trailer to get my 2014 RT home (post above). There wasn't one to be had within 300 miles of where I was in Texas.
 
I have asked this before but will try again. Anyone have or used an Endeavor utility 6X9 folding trailer from USA Trailers? If so what is your opinion?
 
I bought a drop-axel utility trailer, with an extra long ramp/gate. My F3T is so low, you need every spare inch of ramp for clearance. I saved a lot of money buying the generic utility trailer, and figured I would be able to sell it easier, when the time comes. I've used it 3 times, towing from South Florida to North Carolina. Works fine, but fuel mileage in my F-150 really suffers.

I think if money weren't an issue, I'd go for the Stinger Trailer, for the Can Am. They are very light weight, and fold up for storage. I had one for my Gold Wing, and you didn't even know you were towing anything.

I have not used an Endeavor, but I used to have a folding trailer. I just looked at the Endeavor online and I'm not sure that I would trust a Spyder on it. The specs say that it will carry 2000 pounds, but when you load a vehicle like a Spyder on it, the wheels are applying the weight at the extreme ends of the trailer. The folding trailer that I had was definitely not up to the standard of the Endeavor, but the weak point was the hinge. There has to be a support that keeps the trailer deck flat, which puts a LOT of strain on the hinge. I can't tell what the Endeavor's hinge system is, but I'm not sure I would trust it for a vehicle.

Another thing to consider is the placement of the tail lights. They are just behind the wheels, where they will be out of the way when the trailer is folded and possibly stood up on end. However, when unfolded and a Spyder loaded, you will have several feet of trailer and load behind the lights. I prefer a little more conspicuity than that.

Baxley Trailer

Baxley GT2000 customized for the spyder.

Great trailer. The entire bed drops down so you just drive on. Tracks like it is not even there. Has electric brakes as well.
