I love sidecars (obviously… I started this board :biggrin: ) And one of the reasons I bought the 1150 adv is to put a sidecar on it. For now Wify won't let me, and also its bleddie complicated fitting the subframe to these modern frameless bikes as a first try DIY eperient. I can get Humfree to do it, and though I accept his cost is reasonable, its inhibitive for now.
So, I'm first going to give it a go with something simpler on another bike, and thinking of hacking the W650, but that would be sinful. I've already done a lot of research.
I'm not rushing (must first finish the trailer) just getting my ducks in a row.
First the bike. Anyone out there with a nice BMW R100 to swap for a W650 ?
And then I need a suitable tub, so if you have one lying around let me know.
