Title: Sidecar
Post by Brandon4d on 06/21/22 at 21:03:44

Anyone rocking a sidecar? If so how's the handling? What brand are you rocking?

You should probably look for a bike with more power before trying a sidecar.  Just my opinion...

Agree. Side cars are pretty heavy and create more frontal drag. They are much more fun if you have a bike that has a bigger engine with more cylinders. Those Ural motorcycles with factory side cars only do 60 mph or so.

I seem to remember a member or two who have done this, maybe 7 years ago. Do a search on the site.

Urals turn 41 hp and only have 4 gears. It's a 750cc. I think an s40 could do it but it wouldn't be ideal unless you are a good mechanic.

I do agree that it would be hard hitting those interstates. Shoot my bike does like anything over 80 as is haha. The sidecar, I would imagine, would be a grocery getter. Load the wife up and do 35-50 mph only. Aka sideroads

You need to know how to make these for your  sidecar passenger.

Brandon, search on here for it, there was a guy on here a couple years ago who set one up. You’ll want a light sidecar like a velorex or the ones sold by Cycle Sidecar (Indian-made replicas of old Steib designs).

I hope this helps!
