    Actually the MSRP is $3,999.00.

    That's a deal.

    Spyder #1 - 2008 GS SM5 Premier Edition #1977. RIP after 80,000 miles.
    Spyder #2 - 2012 RT SM5. Traded in after 24,000 miles.
    Spyder #3 - 2015 F3 SM6. Put 13,000 miles on and sold it.
    Spyder #4 - 2017 F3 SM6. Too good of a deal to pass up!

    I think the trailer option price is $4,499 (traile and hitch), so that would mean about $500.

    Maybe they meant to make it look like Lamonster's other trailer but I'm pretty sure Bushtec trailers don't bounce all over the road like they are trying to show there.

    So; for $30,000 you can get the complete Spyder RT-S complete w/trailer. Or; you could by a Honda Gold Wing Trike.

    That's easy!

    Not really. A fully loaded two-wheel GW is about $23-25K. Add $15k for the three-wheel conversion and another $5k for the trailer. About $45+k for new.

    Used GW three-wheelers are going for about what a new RT goes for.

    BRP really does have something good with the RT.

    Oh! I saw 2 Gold Wing Trikes at a Honda dealer last fall on the showroom tagged for $29,995.00 apiece. They must have been marked down, and maybe previous year's model.
    I was just referring to the Gold Wing Trike w/no trailer, as well. That is a most expensive package with a trailer, eh?!

    If I was going full touring w/trailer, you can bet it would be the RT-S w/trailer. Except, I would still want a full manual tranny.

    You can do it. The SM5 is the only available choice on the base RT, and it is an option for the RT-A&C and the RT-S.
