Hi folks! Right now we're running a Damon Daybreak and tow a 6x12 enclosed trailer for our motorcycles. We're considering the Canyonstar 3920 and would like to hear from anyone who's had experience with that model. We'd love to get a toyhauler with a real bedroom instead of the loft style of the Outlaw and the Bountyhunter, and the Allstar is a little more than we can spend. The Canyonstar would allow us to tow a small car, too.

Sure has the room for the motorcycles and the full size bed.
Some members here have similar layouts on Allstar so they maybe able to help too.
Good luck in your quest.

Looked at one at the Tampa RV Show, great coach for the $! If you need a Washer/Dryer look at our mods(also other items i.e. tv wiring in garage, etc, etc.) to see how to add one to the garage. Also check the rear ramp for clearance on your bikes-in case you have low clearance-I believe no problem.... Another consideration is to change the 3 burner cooktop to a 2 burner cooktop for more counter space.

Thanks Dave. I enjoyed your gallery. I may have to rethink the affordability of an Allstar. We've been real happy with the Ford F53 on this Daybreak but some of that is "ignorance is bliss" on my part. The Canyonstar pretty much gives up door side seating in the salon, and I think we'd really miss that.

How do park the Fatboy? Do you have to jockey it around to get it to fit diagonally or can you drive it straight in and still have room? I'm thinking I like the rear ramp better because we could drive both Hondas straight in side-by-side in chocks. Although, I can see that the side ramp is lot more convenient in most campgrounds.

Yep you will need the rear ramp for the Hondas as I'm pretty sure they will not fit crosswise. With the Fatboy(under 96") we just pull straight in on the ramp at the rear of the garage, you could put four of them crosswise.

We have no problem parking to unload in almost any RV spot we have been to, in fact its a real advantage as many times we would have had to unload first with a rear ramp.

They no longer make the 4153 with side ramp but the 4257 with rear ramp is a great floor plan that actually adds a foot in length to the garage and provides for an optional bed in the garage/2nd bedroom.
