hiya neighbor I believe Tail-Gunner has been mentioned or done before on a few Spyders. Sorry I don’t have a link, hopefully someone will home in.

Yes, 30 miles is an exaggeration. Several of us left a late evening meeting one summer night and the gentleman with the tailgunner on his spyder left the parking lot first. A mile away down a straight highway on a rise in the road, we could see the light from his headlights and hear his tailginner echoing throughout the evening air. No one likes to ride with him when he runs that muffler. I think he rides a 990.
I am enjoying the OEM on our new to me F3 L. My Victory had modified mufflers I liked. Not to loud but still had to wear ear buds for radio. My riding buddy of years for trips had a HD with Cobra long shots. He rode behind me by request.
The Can-Am Akrapovic silencer is around 22 inches not including the pipe that connects to the catalytic converter. Considering that you need a hanger for the Tailgunner to bolt onto the Spyder and the 90 degree or so bent pipe that connects to the catalytic converter, I'm not sure the universal version will work without doing some additional welding on your own. If you are able to make one work it would be interesting to see a write-up and pictures on what it took to get it to work.
