Great work.
Those front shock look a little stiff.
Kind of like a hard tail.... Razz

Wow .. I love it!!

That is absolutely beautiful .. M@kke you are indeed a very talented man!

In all honesty Buddy .. if I was going to have a Sidecar Outfit built .. I would be knocking on your workshop door.

Thank you for posting the pictures up .. you just made my day Big Grin

I have asked this question before on several Sidecar Sites .. you guys who don't have a hood over the passenger in wet weather .. do you just accept that they get wet, or what?

On my EZS rig the Hood is a little too tight to fit easily and too low for Annie (who is small) to sit under when wearing her helmet .. so we just leave it off and get on with the ride. I fit the small cock-pit cover when we stop.

Stay Safe Guys. Trev (The Polar Bear in Spain)

Hello M@kke,
Very nice work on the Suzuki.

What size is the car tire for the front wheel and did you have to modify the rim so the car tire could be installed?

I working on a similar project on building leading forks for my motorcycle. I like your design---it's looks like a very strong but simple design for the forks.

Thank you

Henry B.

@ hcbilini

you do not have to modify the wheels it fits like original tire's

front tire is 175/55 x 17 (only in Bridgestone Potenza made for opel speedster and lotus elise)

rear tire is 205/45 X 17

no problem if you have any question's ask

Thank you....your picture of the rear tire was very good- I could read the size easily since it was printed in white letters on the black tread. The front tire was size a little more difficult to see.

After looking through all of your pictures --- you are truly an artist with metal ArgueArgue!!

Regards
Henry

Looks really nice, lots of beautiful work there Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

And lots of pictures to go through, too.

One question - what is the piece mounted just to the back of the sidecar wheel? Motor? electric generator?

Yes, I saw it in the pictures on the blogspot link, but wasn't quite sure what it actually was. I have not seen a reverse drive like that before, but imagine that it is a useful tool to have along for the ride sometimes. Cool Cool Cool
