I am looking into purchasing a trailer to haul an RS-S, and an ST-S. Would an 18'x8.5' enclosed trailer have enough length to haul them?

Just sayin'...........

I would think if you would park them rear to rear, with each slid in opposite directions so that the rear tires are beside each other, they'd fit. Park em in your driveway and measure it up

I would allow yourself a little more room, just in case you upgrade to bigger Spyders.

An 18ft v-nose might give you a little added length. Parking offset end to end might be tough if either Spyder has saddle bags.

We still have some snow here, getting them back up the hill might be interesting :D

14'x 8.5' is very doable. We can get a RT and ST in that sized area.

If whatever trailer you pick involves backing onto it ...... traction is going to be an issue .... unless you do this .... I must climb a 10 ft ramp from zero to 28 inches ( I don't know the % of that incline, but it's friggin steep ). The ramp under the rear tire has a 6inch wide X 10ft. strip of sheet metal that I punched a lot of dimples in it with a large nail. Then screwed it onto the ramp - rough side up. Looks like a cheese grater. I have climbed that ramp in the pouring RAIN with my RT and actually stopped , then continued up ....... I have witnesses to this :roflblack::roflblack: ..... it's cheap and works ....... Mike :thumbup:

I have a 7'X23' V nose trailer, which is 18' without the V and my two STS's fit in just fine.144769
