Good video John trailer looks like new again and yes you guys go to a lot of work and time to put out a video and do a good job at it . thanks for sharing take care have a great week

[@RideBlessed]

Good info - I need to get a trailer! Have fun and ride safe

Use a rotary buffer, you can get that paint looking almost new again. Wet sand with very fine grit sandpaper and then spray clear coat and she’ll look like new! I live in VB and have the buffer and supplies if you want to try round 2. Just let me know and we can work on it. I did my 2011 red Honda fit that was severely faded and it came out looking great! My daughter got voted nicest car in her senior year of high school.👍🏻 Picking up my 2024 Ryker Sport this week! I’m excited! I want a Spyder RT Limited but can’t justify the cost until I get closer to retirement. Ryker will be my toy and work ride for now. I took the 3-wheel rider course several weekends ago just to try out the 3 Ryker models (they had one of each model-Base, Sport, and Rally). They do ride different so I suggest taking the class to try them out and get some seat time, even if you already have your motorcycle endorsement. Worth $99!

Congratulations to you!

I hear the Ryker steering can be twitchy according to a few Ryker videos and some owners are adding steering stabilizer. What is your opinion?

[@HankHill757]

@@Nicholas211 I’m having the dealer install the thicker sway bar from BRP when they build the bike because I read the same thing, especially for heavier riders (I’m 240lbs). I’ll add the steering stabilizer myself if I find it to be an issue.

Except maybe in a snowstorm 😂!

@@SpyderRichard well... There's that 😂

Tow Blazer/USA Trailer Store makes the Blackhawk trailer that I felt was a good replacement for the no longer available Freedom trailer. Our friend Pierre, nord of da boder, sells a great cover for the trailers.

[@jameroser-zi5dg]

Thank you for all your efforts to bring such wonderful videos ❤

[@PurpleOnThree]

Lots of planning goes into those magnificent shots! 🤗💜

[@billwilliams9527]

John, you sir are a dedicated Spyder KZbinr. Maybe after you get the trailer the way you want it, spray it with a can of clear coat to bring back the shine? I dunno, ask a pro...

[@charleyhough4355]

Have you ever thought about putting a vinyl wrap on the trailer?

[@JohnMiriamsTravelVlog]

Yes, do not care for the extra labor...

[@PurpleOnThree]

You didn't cheat! Just a different way to travel with your Spyder 😊🤗💜... We felt like we cheated when we flew to Hawaii to ride😂🤷‍♀️

[@HetteshWorld]

Nice work on the trailer John. Your shot would have been much better if Miriam was in the picture. We definitely understand setting up for the shots lot of work small reward.

[@miriambryant1896]

Have been MIA…spending a lot of time in Wburg with my mom and sibs.

[@spyderingwithdandenise7064]

No Spyder rider ever. Too funny.

[@KermitRice]

SlingMods has replacements.

[@PurpleOnThree]

Hmmm....wonder why the paint on the trailer doesn't "hold up" like the paint on the Spyders...🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

[@JohnMiriamsTravelVlog]

Our Spyder lives in the garage, the trailer has lived outside but covered 50% of the time,,, now lives in a storage unit.. but good question.

[@PurpleOnThree]

Why no longer in production?

[@JohnMiriamsTravelVlog]

Our rep did not know,,, just a corporate decision
