Interesting thread.The building you are doing is very good.I wish you luck on your build.Airheads do make good hack.What kind of sidecar are you using? The leading link looks like a Unit Front end..But you built it..

[davide]

Nicely done! Looking forward to reading more & seeing the sidecar body...

I replaced the front wheel to 18 inch and now i have Mezeler Block K tire on it

[YOUNZ]

Is there a Mezeler Block K tire in 16 inch sizes? Good question

I had an R80 monoshock and sidecar many years ago and found the Block K was too hard in the carcass, making the front very skittish. The Avon SM Mk11 was good, but two more modern and long wearing tyres like the Heidenau K60 Scout and Mitas E07 would be worth a look.

I'll second that! Looks like quite the event. I'd be all shook up.
Stinkin' yard sale on the double track!

Seriously ... I'd like to avoid all that, help us out here.
