Thank you.
I will show some pictures when the work is done completely.
A tip from the sidecar driver live:
Do not tell your wife about test drive or monkey.
Tell her about a leisurely drive to drink coffee.
The ride can use them at the same time to a good back gymnastics when they turn to the left or right in the curves.
A simple and good exercise for her back.
And then have a piece of cake served with the coffee.

Today made the first practical experience with the retrofitted anti-roll bar.
Every assessment of me is purely subjective and only "felt".
When "normal driving" I actually felt no difference.
Right as usual, watch out and adjust speed.
Fast left turn, because it will be interesting!
The sidecar remains straight and does not dip with inclination to right and the rear wheel lift up not so strong.
My cozy (50hp) Cx sidecar stays straight in (fast) left-hander lanes, driving through the bend and feeling the stability of how to drive go-cart.
I have the impression that I could bring my vintage CX sidecar (built in 1981) from the chassis something on the front.
Previously, the CX tended to oversteer, now it runs more than the driver can keep on the seat

The swaybar is working verry well at my sidecar.
I made a small inprovment with the holder on the bike swingarm.
It is worked out by "laser cutting" and changed from a two-point fixing to a threepoint fixing. It looks a little bit smarter.
