    Put 86K on one of those bikes.
    I'm guessing Australia is very flat.

    The lad that built it said that the sidecar shock was too soft .When he sat on the bike it was level? .Was funny to see him ride it .All over the place.

    Good to see the lad doing it:clap He was very proud of what he had done already.

    that thing looks great, I think the whole set up suits the look of the LS very well. I do wonder about the power and torque that the 650 delivers though.... Not sure if it would be satisfactory for a sidecar rig, but I have seen a few of them. Beauty. Thanks:clap
