My first sidecar! http://s193.photobucket.com/albums/z283/bpw40/sidecar/

1992 Honda nighthawk with a Velorex 700

Already put a few hundred miles on it and will be taking it up to Tuolumne Meadows next week to see everything while its still green.

Nice Rig, I like it... wasn't sure what I thought about the 700s, but those pics give me a brighter idea of them. Is that a Belstaff symbol in the back?

Yeah, I dont like the looks of the 700 on most bikes but the Nighthawk is so weird looking anyways it all just seems to go together somehow. Especially now that I put on the huge freaking windshield that was also included. That and the owner took me on a run before I bought it and I was really impressed with how comfortable I was (even 2 feet in the air at 60 mph). I stopped for a break on the way back from work today (really need to dial in the lean out) and just chilled in the car for a while, almost felt like sitting on my couch.

Is that a Belstaff symbol? would love to know, maybe I'll remember to get a good look at it tommorow and compare it to the Belstaff logo.
