Because you can put such neat accessories on them.

I sold that one about 5 or 6 years ago when I was in need of money badly.

I still wish I had it.
It was a Dnepr that I put together from a warehouse of old Russian military bike parts.
Yes, it got a lot of respect on the road from other drivers.
No rogue elephants in Hawaii. It is overwhelmingly democrat.

The Vespa is a bit obscured, looks a bit like Cespa, which is fitting, considering the color..

Why I like sidecars. This is my rig and my "special buddy". I built this setup 3 years and 9 months ago to take my buddy (son) around. As of today, we have logged 21,457 miles together.

I had one of Binghams sidecars on a 650 Yamaha in the late seventies and early eighties.
I like the Bingham better than the Jawa Velorex.
