I'm quite liking this! Considering taking some of my '1st house' deposit to buy it and thrash about over the summer. What do you recon? Seams quite a reasonable price so far?
Having never ridden a motorbike with a side car i might hate it but it looks damn cool!

I'm sure it would be a ton of fun, but be very careful going around corners. Since you can't lean it like a regular motorcycle it has a tendancy to want to flip over when you make a turn to the sidecar side. Turning away from the sidecar is no problem because the sidecar is there.
Make sure to take pics of you and Clair tooling around in it.....on it.....whatever.

Agreed; right turns are no problem, but sharp speedy left turns can jack-knife the entire rig like a kids tricycle. It would look cool with Claire piloting the motorcycle and Crotch with his skinny tie blowing in the wind whilst in the side-car Pocket Seat.........hmmm........"CrotchPocket".......yeah, that's it!!!:laughing:

If Claire rides in the sidecar, does that make her "Ilene?"
