Hey Folks.....been living in N.E. Florida for 40yrs now.....originally from Wolverhampton UK......really did not want to put a sidecar on my motorbike.... but riding solo after both knees were replaced was getting tough!!.....especially with wifey on the back?? (she only weights 115lbs)!! but after "driving" the outfit for about 4 months....I enjoy the hell out of it
did not realize what I had been missing all these years??!! .....
I have a Yami Roadstar 1700cc hooked to a Texas sidecar...installed EZ-steer 6 degree trees and van tire 175x75x16 comtrac on rear wheel....later will install C/T on front wheel....the sidecar came with a wide C/T......why waste money putting motorbike tires on a sidecar outfit? MHO.......
Y`all "drive" safe now........oldbritgit......

Tried to make it bigger Mike, but I'm a dimwit when it comes to this stuff. Took me 15 minutes just to get this uploaded.
The little woman bought me a gopro for Christmas. Odds are I'll use it once or twice and it'll sit. All the editing....

Thats a great looking rig!
