Sidecar

[Hudson]

Found this gem on the local craigslist. My kids are already saying "oh please oh please":

$12,500 for an 05 with 32k miles. Sidecar retails for about $5k alone....

Wait a minute!

Your kids are excited and begging....and you're hesitating, because....

"Oh no, children, we simply CAN'T have another bike in the garage. I know you are excited and would love to go for rides with Dad, but we have to stop and think about this."

Whoo boy!

I'm sure glad my SO is on dial up and doesn't cruise the forum.

She'd love this so we can take her dog along. No money or room in the garage.

Saw that one sitting at a stoplight in Maple Valley the other day. First thought was just "that is soooo wrong".

At least I think it was that one. I would hate to think there are more than one out here.

thank goodness it's too far away to persue.

More like "ok kids, we'd have to ditch your bikes, the peddle cars, and the toys." Only a 2 car garage, with one bay filled with doodads, the other has my 08. I'd love to get just the sidecar, though.

Dave, I saw that yesterday my self. I more in the opion "that is so wrong" hack's belong on Gold wing and Harley's! :lol:

I'm not saying not to buy the hack but if you do I would highly recommend that you take a side car class. I didn't and have a bummed up left knee for the rest of my life. The chair will fly on a hard right turn and will tip over on a hard left turn .

I still have mine, a Ural, but I am a lot more careful with it on corners. If you have ridden a two wheeler a lot you have some natural reactions to a problem and they are usually wrong with a hack. Having said that, they are a lot of fun just to run around town but on the road I will take my FJR anyday.

Looks like fun? Well in some strange perverted [asymetrical] fashion, it probably is. Just remember, once you put a hack on it you no longer ride it [in the truest sense of the word], you drive it! As long as you're thinking to have a pair of FeeJ in the barn [1w/hack & 1w/o] I could see it, but if it's a case of 3wheels only, ...nope!

[Phugedaboudet]

Sorry to hear about your misfortune. I was ttthhhaaattt close to buying one on the spot, but stopped and did some research first. Turns out there is a whole nother learning curve on those things that scared me out of it.

In the end, one is far more slippery and safe on two wheels than three. I don't mind if I get myself banged up, but to have a loved one in a sidecar get nicked would really bum me out.
