Sonor Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Makes me think it will handle like a truck. But that's just my $0.02 Link to comment
Bud Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 Actually has a pretty sophisticated front end and the steering is light. Not to equate that with attractiveness. But it is a high performance rig. Link to comment
tallman Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Much as I don't like driving a sidecar, that one speaks, "win the lottery and buy me..." Link to comment
mickeym3 Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Kinda attractive in a Hummer kind of way...in fact I can see Schwarzenegger breezing around the nursing home on one. Link to comment
greiffster Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 now that's a front tire. Link to comment

I don't know - I hear he has some trouble with them already... http://people.com/celebrity/schwarzenegger-in-motorcycle-accident/ Link to comment
Bud Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 Ever wonder how they made it 2WD? Link to comment
Medic Mike Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Looks like the BMW crowd is taking a page from the GW Darksider pages. Link to comment
Paul De Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 A big technological leap from a R69S with a Steib sidecar for sure. Nice looking overall, even the "Generation 40 Earls" forks don't bother me as they are a must to make the rig handle well. If that is your thing why stop there, turbo charge it to leave no doubt about its performance...or mate it to a K1600 GT. Link to comment
TEWKS Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Handling is all in the handler! Funny part about this vid is all the laughter! K16, it's been done but requires you to join a Swing Club! Pat Link to comment
Bud Posted February 28, 2017 Author Share Posted February 28, 2017 (edited) New meaning to the term swinger! Looks like fun. Or you can do it with a R 1200 GS LC Edited February 28, 2017 by Bud Link to comment
Green RT Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 New meaning to the term swinger! Looks like fun. Or you can do it with a R 1200 GS LC My biggest objection to side hacks is that they no longer handle like a motorcycle. So that would appeal if I were in a side hack frame of mind. That one looks like the lean angle on right turns is a little limited. Link to comment
Glenn Reed Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 I seem to recall a sidecar from back in the 80s where both the hack and the bike leaned. I believe it was called the Equalean, or something like that. I found some info on it here. Link to comment
