Signed up with this FORUM a couple of weeks ago. I recently purchased an '85 K100 with EML sidecar. Also own an '05 K1200 LT. I've been doing a major service on the K100, all fluids, check valves, rebuild leaking water pump, replace wheel bearings on sidecar wheel, clean and lube drive shaft splines, plugs, etc. The rig is a blast to ride except for engine heat, especially on the right side next to the sidecar. Hoping to find some info here that will help before summer returns.

Welcome to the forum we seem to be getting quite a few new members with sidecars so you wont be on your own.

Welcome JLK. You'll get lots of information and support on here and a bit of banter too!


I would love to see some pictures of the rig once you're free to upload them. Takes about a week from registration to be allowed to upload pics, then follow the instructions in the tutorial.

Welcome mate, your problem of course is that your sidecar is on the wrong side, we don't have a right hand heating problem over here. Laughing

Welcome aboard Lynn. I'm currently visiting relatives in Sarsota although not by bike. What a great time of year it would be to be riding here.

Forgot to mention that I am constantly amazed at the number of unhelmeted (mostly)Harley riders I see here in Florida.It's something we're just not used to seeing.

YEA, we call them "ORGAN DONORS"! i HAVE BEEN AN MSF Instructor for 13 years. I never ride without full gear whether I'm on 2 wheels or 3.
