You can get into a brand new Bushtec Roadstar trailer for about $2500 (at least that was the price last fall). The price goes up from there in options (paint, wheels, extra lighting, accessories, etc.) and trailer model / size (Turbo +2 or Quantum). We did pay $550 for the hitch last fall. I think $6000 for a Bushtec is the top of the line Quantum GL with a lot of options added. We priced out the used Roadstar that we got for dltang and that trailer would cost around $4000 today with all the options that are on it.

I sure don't know where I got the idea that I could get a trailer for around $1,000! Lol! 'must have come to me in a dream, or something. I think now, I'll
just aim for a set of the Givi bags. Those should do nicely for my needs.

I wonder if the handlebars will be raised and the footpegs would placed in a more comfortable position. Couldn't tell from the pictures. Looks good though :clap:

Check out the Piggybacker, nice for the price, about $900 delivered. Not much style, though.

Congrat to Dave

If you were to order one I just want you to know Doc that BRP is giving me ahead start on you so that it will take you longer than 60 days to catch my mileage.

I am thinking about Florida hyea:

We do have a dealer out here that will match your down payment up to $1,000 for a pre order RT

 

[nickcaro]

Whoa!!

I spend a few days out in north west Maine, unplugged and come back to find all this!!


Nice!!

Bring on the RT!

....now I have to get myself caught up on all the details.

Dude you gotta get off the seat from time to time and check in--all you need is a more comfortable :spyder2: --we won't hear from you then till 100,000 miles.:roflblack::roflblack: how many now 60,000 + ? :yikes::thumbup:

You will love the trailer.$4K is alot of dough but it is truly a well made unit.Will hold 2 sets of clubs plus all the luggage.BRP says it connects to the Spyder and adjusts the Spyder automatically.

The R/T will be a hit.I noticed some power loss but hey with 2up and 300 more pounds it stepped smartly around D.C.All the colors are cool fit and finish is great!

I will review better after I sleep from long drive.It was worth it.

Can you confirm if the hitch is swingarm mount?

 

[Firefly]

I don't think they would mount to the swingarm....

That trailer looks much larger than many I've seen out here--- if it's in the $4-$5K range with the hitch--- that's a pretty good deal.

 

[spyryder]

Been verified.....it IS swingarm mounted.

 

[Firefly]

WOW---- that's pretty shocking. How was this 'verified'?
