    sidecar

    the dilemma of motorcycle riders when you have 2 kids is how do you take them both on your bike at the sametime.
    Both my girls love going on the bike with me and fight with each other as to who gets to go and even when they take turns its always"she went longer than me".
    So for a couple years I have been keeping my eye out for a side car or a (shudder) trike.
    I saw a cheap trike a gs1000 $10000.00 thought that was a bit rich especially as I have my girls part time.
    hmmmm a harley trike ummmm no thanks I left the farm alooong time ago a vw powered trike hahahahahahahaha.

    Ok side car it is now a brand new sidecar shipped from Eastern states was priced at $4000.00 surely someone in W.A. doesnt want thier side car anymore soooo check papers ebay gum tree and after a few years of looking I found one , its on the vintage side a goulding frame but hey its in excellent condition and shouldnt be too hard to attach to my ZR750 kwaka .

    So pics below of sidecar and further pics of it sitting next to the ZR750

    do you have to register it separately like a trailer? Will your insurance still be valid?

    The occupants will definitely need to complete the look and wear goggles like these http://www.corbisimages.com/images/6...9/AZ002597.jpg :p

    if it was going on the busa it would be one of those flexi ones that moves with the angle.
    as for tracking Shann I got a print out from a side car site detailing how to set it up which will be after it is all attached first to my liking then I will be doing the tedious task of measuring and moving and measuring and moving to get the tracking and lean of bike correct
