Rider Profile

Best ForThis rig demands an experienced rider comfortable with the unique, counter-intuitive steering dynamics of a sidecar outfit.
PurposeBuilt for stately long-distance touring and hauling a passenger or cargo in comfort rather than for speed or sport riding.
Rider FitManeuvering the combined weight of the big V-twin and attached sidecar at low speed requires real upper-body strength and deliberate technique.
CharacterA classic, torque-driven cruiser transformed into a three-wheeled, old-world touring machine full of mechanical charm.
Not Ideal ForNot for riders seeking agile cornering, quick acceleration, or any off-road capability.
