Sounds like a cool project. I hope you document it in the build section. I'm sure alot of people would like to watch that come together. I know I do!


As far as setting up a sidecar rig to drive right,I have two buddies who are into sidecars big time. I've watched them make adjustments to the rigs,but I didn't really pay attention. If you need any help I'd be happy to pick their brains. Apparently it's not as easy as it looks to get the bike to sit up straight under all conditions-empty sidecar vs loaded sidecar. You also have to get it all tracking correctly,not just parallel.

Since you're into dirt track I'm sure you understand all about toe on a front end. Same principles apply here.

Just holler if you want any particular piece of info and I'll ask the guys. They looooove to talk about their rigs so it won't be hard to get info outta them.
