any street sidecar plans out there?

David

street sidecars are generally available, some even have two wheel drive. Two recomendations for a solo fitted with a street sidecar are: a brake on the chair wheel, (this is not needed on a race bike since there is generally no weight there under hard braking). and second there are conversions available for the front forks to provide the appropriate negative trail. solos have the axle in front of the neutral point, often by several inches, which can be a disaster to drive. Gearing can be expensive on a shaft drive, but most riders will drop the gearing for sidecars, and also stifen up the suspension.
