The rig's on the wrong side of the bike, although it probably rides down the wrong side of the road, too.

Man that fairing looks suspiciously similar to an aviation  propeller spinner, what a great idea!

            Man, I can not believe that I didn't notice that bit on the fairing! ::) Now that YOU mention it, it DOES look like one doesn't it?

Been trying to find a nice aluminum prop spinner for some time......wanting to do something similar. Although that one looks a little big. If I can find one thats more proportional with the bike....i'm gonna massage and tweek one a little to have a nice alloy fairing.  ;D

         Greg, after seeing what kind of product YOU put out, I can hardly wait to see just what you've got up your sleeve. ;D

That looks like a wasonian sidecar http://www.watsonian-squire.com/sidecars.htm
English bike so sidecar on the left. I have sat in a lefthand sidecar on WER 2003 when my K6 electrics gave up an I had to go by car (yes, the shame).

I takes some guts to be sitting next to a crazy Englishman how leaves you dangeling in upcomming traffic half of the time.

Andy from Boston was there to. Great fun :)

Reminds me of the one I should have kept. Bought a 1947 Harley left hand sidecar out of a barn for my 1950 Panhead. Still had the Washington, DC lettering on the side. Was used by parking patrol for chalking cars. It was pretty rough and traded it for a restored right hand even up. At the time, I thought I got the best end of the deal. Wish now I had it back.

Reminds me of taking a Beemer buddy to go look at a hack.

Indian boat style with frame and I think wheel.. not sure about fender..1500 bucks!! Even though I told him about a guy in Montana that dealt in sidecars that probably would have trade for a Beemer one he passes on the deal!!..

it probably would have sold in Walnecks at the time for 3600-4K..like 5 or 6 K in our money..

Funny thing it was on the same road as where I bought my sandcast 750... and about a 1/4 mile from the vintage flattrack we used to go to!!
