XS1100 with sidecars

[Mathh]

I have been reading Deebs11's topic about his XS with sidecar, really enjoyed it. I'm always looking at sidecars looking for technical solutions and I remember posting something in the far-away-past but the link to the pictures of that meeting no longer works. I do remember a lot of people enjoyed looking at these sidecars. So I collected all sidecars i could find in my XS1100 archive (and a couple of others) and I'll show themin this topic. Sadly I'm missing a couple of years but it is what it is. I hope you enjoy them!

This was in France 2008:

Love those front end mods and of course the custom body work on the fairings and side cars.

Can't beleive there are that many XS11's with sidecars.

I love the use of car tires which really improve the stability of the rig and the mileage of the tires. I also love the "Earls" type front ends with leading link swing arm suspension. There aren't too many companies left in the states (if any) who make a front end like that any more. Nothing like a sidecar in the winter snow. You ride year round with no down time. Well, almost no down time.
