Sidecar silliness

Well when I first saw the thread title and the originator my first thought was wiping out a Ural outfit changing lanes, but no I was wrong !


I like the VW outfit and what is that plane supposed to be a Wildcat ? original, top marks for that but I would rather have that for a bike fairing that a sidecar. Well we can all dream can't we !

Ride on !

+1 for the VW van - That's my favorite. Only need a picture of the Beetles St Pepper style and some flowers and such.

the van is cool, but like the WWII plane.

There is a guy where my wife works. He is a paralyzes from the waist down. He set up a bike with a side cart so he can ride. I thought that was pretty cool.

Wombat,

Hankering for a new Ural with side car? How 'bout an old BMW instead? Same speed and handling, different look.

Cat,

Not that I miss the Ural, but I really do miss having the sidecar.

As the Ural is a copy of an old BMW, not really that much difference in looks either.
I would actually prefer a NEW Ural to an OLD BMW.

SWMBO has told me that I can get another sidecar, BUT, I cannot have another bike, which means either fitting an outfit to the TBS or selling it and buying something else.

Neither option is to my liking.

I think the answer is to buy a sidecar with a bike attached, just say the sidecar was xxx amount of dollars and they threw the bike in free !

How about this one. It is a Watsonian, and I think it looks the looks the DB.

That TBS outfit is very nice, I like that colour on the Sports, (as well as black/yellow)
