Open Trailers for towing Spyders - what's the best suspension type? Experience, opinions, or are we just over-thinking this?

[NutinElse2do]

We have decided that an open folding trailer is the way to go for our needs.

We camp in small remote State parks and moving around an enclosed trailer just doesn’t work at our age. Plus having a folding trailer means no storage fees at home.

There are 3 possible options and we believe we have it narrowed down to the final two.
My question is around suspension when carrying a Spyder for thousands of highway miles (Min 5000 miles).

Options:

Stinger trailer - has no trailer suspension (we believe this is not the best option).
*Cons - NO trailer suspension.

Kendon trailer - has independent torsion bar suspension.
*Cons - Expensive

Roadstar trailer (Similar to Stinger), but has Slipper spring suspension.
*Cons - new to market, no videos, and little information or history.
*May be able to contact the maker and ask for independent torsion bar upgrade.

From everything I have read, the Torsion bar is a smoother ride compared to slipper springs, but my real world knowledge is minimal.
For those people with real world experience I would love your input.

Are we over thinking this and either works great or is torsion the best?

I would think one of the considerations is how you tie the Spyder down.

If you're attaching the tie down straps to the Spyder's frame or handlebars then yes, I'd be worried about the trailer's suspension.

But if you use tie down straps through the wheels then the Spyder's suspension will take care of any bounces.


Fair warning: I have a Stinger trailer.

Suspension or not -avoid LoUiSiAna. Good food & all but, unfortunately our roads can broke neck those lil dash bobble heads

Have had a lot of trailers in my time and LOVE the torsion bar type, they are worth the money in my book! If you can get one with the Dexter axle, I would get galvanized but if you just get steel keep it painted! I use a enclosed trailer that I got second hand, it didn't have a brake kit on it, but I installed it on myself! My trip down to Tenn this spring on the way home I am VERY happy I did, in Virgina I came very close to a total wreck, the brakes were the only thing keeping me out of a bad day!
