    I just purchased a teardrop trailer, prototype for mass production. I'm pulling it with my Harley and maybe w/ the RT in the future. HD wants big bucks as well for the plug adapter. I've already changed all the lights to function on each individual wire from the harness, besides I get more lights and am seen better.... I say do it yourself when you can....

    NancysToy: elsewhere you mentioned an Aspen Sentry. ????

    Questions, Questions, Questions,
    1. Did you have to provide the adapter? Or did the vender have one?
    2. I looked at their site but did not see any weight specs. Do you know the base weight?

    SWMBO and I are planning on Wingding cuz several of the trailer folks are supposed to be there. Should be able to 'kick the tires' on a few different trailers b4 we make a final decision.

    1. I had to make my own wiring adapter. I also changed their round, metal 6-pole connector to a plastic rectangular one to match another trailer. Separating the wiring to add an additional 4-pole connector this week, to tow with F-150/HHR.

    2. They do not list the weight. I emailed them and I think they said 290# empty. That is without the spare. It is heavier than the Rt-622, but still allows about 100# of cargo with the Spyder. Of course a cooler and spare eat a lot of that up...but bedding and clothes weigh little.

    The ease of setup, the queen-sized bed, and the screened room make this a real luxury on a trip. I think the weight is about the middle of similar units. Tows well with a Spyder, but it does eat some gas mileage.

    Here's a pic of what we're pulling.
    It's a Wags trailer, from Denver, Iowa.
    Worked great behind the Dyna....seems to do good also behind the RT.



    They make a "pet" model, and another cargo size bigger than ours.
