    Everything is working very well. I just did a fresh top end on it yesterday and the customer left this afternoon for the BMW rally in Missouri.

    Thank You:D

    Went for a nice backcountry ride yesterday... to the Sandilands area of south eastern Manitoba. These are believed to be the ancient seashore beaches from post glacial Lake Agassiz (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Agassiz) . This picture is taken from a burnt out ridge (forest fire) and is likely pretty much the highest point in southern Manitoba, with water from the Laurentian Shield to the east, draining northwest to the Red River and Lake Winnipeg. Gorgeous view from up there looking out onto the prairies unfolding as far as the eye can see.

    Awesome :clap

    Is that the rim conversion you sell on there? Any issues with shaft clearance in the rear with the car tires?

    Yes it is. On this rig a used a 4" wide rim which I would not recommend on a twin shock airhead. I notched the swing arm to clear the tire. A 3.5" rim would work better.

    Hello, I am Stone from the Czech Republic, and this is my project sidecar. Motorcycle, is the BMW R100GS PD-1992, and the Dnepr sidecar from about the 1970th. Much work was needed, now is a hack dismantled and taken to painting
