Touring with sidecar

Evening all, been absent with health issues etc as well as 'dropping' a Vespa at a reasonable speed would you believe, catching up and came across 'Latvian's' post regarding the Touring and sidecar, not sure if I had posted pics of my unit, had the car on for 6 odd months and nothing but enjoyment to date. I was thinking perhaps Europe would have a greater choice of units, mine is an EZS (Dutch). Regards Carey J.

Hope you are all healed. I too have health issues, I'm old.

I see you installed a leading link in place of the USD forks. That one modification is probably the modification that makes the offset 3 wheeler fun instead of work. I recommend an Earls on any bike with a chair because of the decided lack of trail in modern suspensions.

I kept the telescopic fork on my Bonnie just as a nostalgia item. It takes a fairly large steering damper to keep the front end minding it's business but it imparts a heavy steering effort. My outfit isn't something that likes twisty roads or should I say my arms don't like twisty roads.
