Beautiful sidecar!
What is the chair? It looks like a Tremola?

That looks like a fairly lightweight/small sidecar. Less weight to drag around.
Pardon my ignorance about sidecars but I have some questions:
1 - That front tire looks really wide. Does it hydroplane if you ride through standing water? (My K1100s hydroplane on the freeway even with motorcycle tires.)
2 - Why does the sidecar have a rollbar? Is there a seatbelt in the sidecar?

Hi Duck,
It's got car tyres all round, & so far no problems with aqua-planning, I tend to ride to suit the conditions.
Yes, there is a seatbelt in the chair, not a legal requirement, occasionaly my grandkids like to jump in & have some good old fashioned fun

Thats a beatiful rig. There are a lot of tubs out there that dont really suit the K shape but that works for me!courgette wrote:Hi all,
