    Default 2017 Honda Ridgeline

    If anyone got a spyder to fit in the bed let me know, the measurements seems to indicate a rt limited will not fit though maybe a small spyder (Ryder) would.

    Howdy;

    Wellsir - all my years of putting bikes into pickup beds has taught me never to put bikes into pickup beds. lol

    - Lack of weather protection,
    - Elevated risk of on & offloading mishaps
    - Lack of security,
    - Eats ~1,000lb + out of yer max 1580 payload, leaving you with less than 580 lbs fer you, yer passengers, snotsuckers, dawg, luggage, cargo, tools, beer, stash, and other assorted detritus.

    Small Enclosed trailer frees a lot of payload, is easy to load, don't cost all that much relative to the cost of a new RT. And will be cake to tow with the current Ridgeline powertrain.

    I think a Ryker has a narrower front track than an RT. RT is 61.9" wide overall. I know an F3 is a tad narrower.. Rear wheel on the tailgate was always a concern fer me with dynamic loading. Use a sheet of 3/4+" plywood in the entire bed including over the tailgate to help distribute the load.

    Just my humble ol' opinion, aight?

    Good luck with whatever path you choose. Stay safe.

    Cheers

    Most likely not, plus the tailgate wont hold that kind of weight - my 2018 Ford recommends no more than 300 lbs on the tailgate and most of the weight is on the front wheels of our spyders.

    It does fit in my 19RR toy hauler!
