Has anyone used this type of towing for the Spyder and if so, what is your opinion?
-
This setup was discussed in here about a Month ago...
Towing a Spyder backwards, with it's nose down... is a recipe for a disaster!
If you don't tear the nose off on a dip in the road: you're just as likely to lose the windshield...
(It's not designed for high-speed backing up!)

But yet they are out of stock??...Pick one up and give it a shot. Let everyone know how it works out for you. [emoji106]
Personally, I've never liked any trailer rig that drags the wheels, unless it's a hooptie or an emergency.

If I were you I'd call them and ask for references to buyers. You stand a much better chance of honest user opinions that way. Either no one here has used one, or if they have they aren't seeing these threads.

As I see it...
Your not going to get a user answer here for the very reason you are getting the above opinons... where we have seen the problem with the windsheilds were on trailers mounted backwards so that is an issue as for the nose....many have damaged theirs coming off and on trailers going backwards...

I can see that towing a Spyder this way would be good for picking a nice road debris or roadkill trophy.
